This challenge occurred during the Abscam investigation conducted by the FBI.
The sting involved undercover FBI agents posing as representatives of wealthy Arab sheiks willing to pay to obtain asylum in the United States. During the meeting in a Washington, D.C. townhouse, the agent offered Murtha $50,000 cash, and he refused it, stating “I'm not interested...at this point.”[4][5] The charges against him were dropped in return for his testimony against Representative Frank Thompson.

In our hobby, we call that "rolling over on your friends."
