Women have come up with sneaky ways to catch cheating blokes red handed.

Many are turning to Facebook groups to see if the men they're dating are actually single. There are plenty of online communities dedicated to exposing lads who are married or in relationships.

These include "Sis, is this your man" and "Are we dating the same guy". You can even find groups that are local to you, which means people can often chat to mutuals of their matches.

If that wasn't extreme enough, some singletons are taking things a step further. According to relationships writer Jana Hocking, many are honey trapping their men.

How men respond to flirty messages can reveal if they're actually committed in relationships or not. And if they sound interested in the attractive strangers, it's bad news.

While these "evil" tactics can be very effective, they're not always the best idea. Dating guru Jana warned these "evil" techniques can have quite serious impacts.

She told FEMAIL: "I give these women's props for getting creative when it came to spying on their men, but I think the paranoia would eat me alive. I prefer to date in a 'let's just give it a go until one of us bows out' kinda way.

"It can't be healthy to constantly be living in a state of fear that your man could cheat. If your gut says he's cheating, it's usually because there are red flags flying early. Instead of setting up traps how about you just follow your gut and move on.

"I mean don't get me wrong I love reading about it but isn't dating supposed to be fun? Sheesh, it's gotten dark lately."
