That is not entrapment. Entrapment is when, in the most basic sense, it occurs when a government official, such as a police officer, uses threats, fraud, or harassment to induce or coerce someone to commit a crime they wouldn't ordinarily commit.

Oh, and when you claim entrapment as a defense, you have to admit to having committed the crime. That is why politicians always make claims about entrapment in front of a TV camera, but never in front of a judge.

BTW, IANAL so YMMV.
