Positive pregnancy tests are being sold online to keep struggling relationships from falling apart over the Christmas period.
Ads have appeared on websites including Craigslist offering the tests for around $20 (£12.80).
One ad reads: ‘I have positive pregnancy test for those of you who need a little help holding onto your man through the holidays, shoot me a message for $20 each.’
Fake positive pregnancy tests have been available for some time, and are advertised on sites like eBay as a ‘prank’ gift.
Another Craigslist post, which has since been removed, asks: ‘Wanna lock your man down just in time for Christmas?’
But police have warned how buying these tests in a bid to tie down a partner could be classed as blackmail, metro.co.uk reports.
