意思
To be tricked into a bad situation.
文化背景
The 'Middle Income Trap' (pułapka średniego dochodu) is a major topic in Polish economics, referring to the challenge of moving from a low-cost labor economy to an innovation-based one. In the 'Witcher' series by Andrzej Sapkowski, traps (both physical and political) are a recurring theme, reflecting the dangerous world the characters inhabit. During WWII, the Polish Underground State often set 'pułapki' (ambushes) for the occupiers, which solidified the word's association with clever resistance. Consumer protection laws in Poland often use the term 'pułapki w umowach' (traps in contracts) to warn citizens about fine print in banking or telecommunications.
Use with 'nie'
It's very common to use this in the negative to give advice: 'Nie daj się złapać w pułapkę!'
Preposition check
Never say 'wpaść na pułapkę' (that would mean falling ON TOP of a trap). Use 'w'.

Economic context
If you're reading Polish news, look for 'pułapka zadłużenia' (debt trap). It's a very high-frequency term.
Skepticism
Poles value being 'cwany' (street smart). Admitting you 'fell into a trap' is often seen as a lesson in becoming more 'cwany'.
