British Officials Warned Against Sex With Russian Honeytraps

Top British defense officials have been warned not to fall under the spells of beautiful young women while working in Russia and China, The Sunday Times reported.
Citing a leaked copy of a set of instructions issued by the British Defense Ministry on avoiding "honeytraps" — espionage operations where officials are seduced by foreign agents and then blackmailed with compromising information — the paper reported that Russia's Federal Security Service is known for its penchant for preying on "marital infidelity or sexual activity the target may wish to hide" to leverage information from foreign officials.
"Sexual involvement should be avoided," the instructions reportedly warn, as should "any activity which can possibly be construed as illegal."
The Chinese intelligence services are also said to use blackmail against foreign officials, according to the report, which says they have a "voracious appetite" for political, military, commercial, scientific and technological information from foreigners.
