Undercover police tried to trick a group of drug dealers, but ended up getting scammed themselves in Phnom Penh on Saturday.

The cops set up a buy-and-bust sting with the devious dealers near a local market. The six suspects, however, rolled up for the exchange with a secret plan.

While the cops kept their side of the deal, handing over a wad of cash, the sly meth slingers simply kept the drugs and took off with the money.

The humiliated cops gave chase, only managing to capture one of the suspects.
