Spy traps
In South Korea it was recently revealed that North Korea had, for
several decades, been using a new twist on the classic "honey trap".
This involved female agents not just seducing prominent foreigners (and then
blackmailing them into spying to avoid release of video of the illicit liaison)
but getting pregnant by the victim and later applying even more pressure on the
very vulnerable father. This technique apparently became known to South Korean
intelligence after the defection of a high ranking North Korean official in
2004 who had detailed knowledge of the program. For over a decade this was kept
secret as efforts were made to find out who the victims were and what secrets
they might have compromised. Little more information on this situation has
surfaced so far.
