An app called Tea™ was marketed as a safespace for women and used government issued IDs as a way to verify users.

4Chan users leaked all of the IDs onto the larger internet.

    Well, I get what you mean, but a "honey trap" idiom in English, also called a "honeypot scheme", usually refers to utilizing romantic connections to influence people to make decisions or release confidential information.

    Honeypot is a common term in computing/cybersecurity, setting up fake important servers so bad actors invade and the security team can analyze what got in and how to deal with it.
