Romance is being used as a weapon. Stay sharp.
Honey trapping isn’t a flirtation gone wrong. It’s a calculated move—designed to lure you into a compromising situation and then use it against you. It starts with fake affection, builds trust fast, and ends in blackmail. This isn’t just happening in espionage movies. It’s happening in our everyday lives, across social media platforms and messaging apps.
What makes honey trapping dangerous is how personal it feels. It targets your emotions—makes you believe there’s a connection—then flips it into control. Victims often stay silent, consumed by shame or fear. That silence helps offenders thrive. We need to break it.
Don’t share intimate information online. Don’t accept requests from unknown people, no matter how charming they seem. Never respond to unfamiliar video calls or messages. And don’t ever send money or personal documents to someone you haven’t met and verified in the real world.
If you’re in a public role—military, political, corporate leadership—be even more vigilant. Many honey trapping cases have involved sensitive leaks, reputational harm, and long-term fallout. This is not just about individuals—it’s a national concern.
At the Akancha Srivastava Foundation, we deal with cases like these regularly. We guide victims, support investigations, and raise awareness. If this happens to you—speak up. Contact us. We will listen, and we will help you reclaim your power.
