A honey trap is used primarily to collect evidence on the subject of the honey trap. Occasionally, the term may be used for the practice of creating an affair for the purpose of taking incriminating photos for use in blackmail. Private investigators are often employed to create a honey pot by wives, husbands, and other partners usually when an illicit romantic affair is suspected of the "target", or subject of the investigation. The term "honey trap" is also used when dating sites are used to gain access to a victim. The honey pot or trap involves making contact with an individual who has information or resources required by a group or individual the trapper will then seek to entice the target into a false relationship (which may or may not include actual physical involvement) in which they can glean information or influence over the target. Honey trapping is an investigative practice involving the use of romantic or sexual relationships for interpersonal, political (including state espionage), or monetary purpose.
