honey trap Well, lust leads to shame and regret, and a Surat-based businessman learned it the hard way. The message he received proved to be costly for him. One fine day, he got a message saying, ‘market mein nayi ladki aayi hain,’ and an address was sent to him along with a picture.

The businessman landed at the place, and once he reached there, within no time, the ‘police’ raided the place. However, little did he know that the police were part of the gang. Threatening to make the issue public, they then demanded a down payment of Rs 10 lakh from the businessman.

But it did not stop there. A month later, the businessman got threats and paid Rs 40 lakh. However, after a few days, they threatened to give Rs 20 lakh. This time, the businessman realized something was fishy and approached the police.

The girl and the gang are absconding, and the police are hunting for them.
