Lure into a trap (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

decoy

'lure into a trap' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for decoy that I've seen before include "Imitation creature used to attract others" , "Thing used to lure animal into trap" , "Something used to lure prey into a trap" , "It's used to lead into a trap" , "Lure or snare" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
