Honey Trap (Internet Series) Poem by .Pd. is here

One new e-mail
Announces the pop-up
Subject: Win $ 10,000, it shook me up.

(My eyes examined it with suspicion
I didn't let it bother me, for I was greed smitten.)

To crack the $ 10,000 deal
I began to follow the steps
The $ 10,000 was waiting to be accessed.

(I had the key to the treasure,
Money...for free..What a pleasure!)

I entered my bank id and password.
What happened next
Left me perplexed.

(I had been taken for a ride
It was a honey trap...I bled my pride)

The faux e-mail left my bank account at zilch
Hard earned money lost,
it did pinch!

(Mirror Mirror on the wall...
I know I am the biggest fool of all)

So well concealed was that 'Honey Trap'!
It turned me from near riches - to - rag
This insanity I never hope to recap.

('I' the 'Bee', caught in the honey trap..
But it made me grow a little wiser
And this victimsied bee
Is thankful to the honey trap for that!)
