In general, stories like the scandal involving Nvidia's Jensen Huang, who was allegedly lured by a Chinese spy, are classic and basic.
So-called honey traps have long been used by the intelligence services of various countries to recruit the right people.
Here is just one of the stories of the work of a Mossad agent.
And, since the Mossad itself usually does not refer to its actions, this story is familiar to us from the materials of the Lebanese press, which is close to Hezbollah.
In 2022, anti-Lebanese intelligence arrested a certain Hussein H., the son of a senior Hezbollah official who died in Syria.
Hussein himself was also a militant in the group and took an active part in the battles in Syria from 2011 to 2020.
He later left Hezbollah and went abroad in search of work.
There he was contacted by a former ally and friend of his late father.
The man offered to help Hossein and introduced him to a girl named Habiva in Istanbul, whom he introduced as the daughter of his friend and the owner of a chocolate business in North Macedonia.
Hussein was amazed by Habiba's beauty and the fact that she was interested in him, because before that, in his own words, he had no romantic relationship at all.
In fact, Habiba became his first wife and first love.
As stated in the materials of the Lebanese investigation, Habiva was an Israeli intelligence officer.
After a series of joint trips, Hussein eventually arrived with her in Belgium, where he was met at one of the villas by a man who, according to investigators, turned out to be a Mossad agent.
There Hossein was shown hidden camera videos of his intimate encounters with Habiba and threatened to publish them and harm his family if he refused to cooperate.
According to the detainee's initial testimony, the man agreed to cooperate.
