The recent "Honey Trap" scandal uncovered by the Ahmedabad district police serves as a stark warning for middleaged individuals, particularly men, seeking companionship on dating apps. The gang, comprising five individuals including two women, preyed on affluent men registered on the Quack Quack app in Ahmedabad and Surat.

Many victims, including professionals and high-ranking executives, are hesitant to report such crimes to the police due to the fear of social repercussions.
