Francisco Pizarro trapped the Inca emperor Atahualpa during the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire in 1532. Pizarro lured Atahualpa into a meeting under the pretense of discussing peace, while his forces ambushed the unarmed Inca entourage. During the encounter, Pizarro's men attacked, capturing Atahualpa and using him as leverage to demand a massive ransom in gold and silver. Despite the ransom being paid, Pizarro ultimately executed Atahualpa, solidifying Spanish control over the Inca territory.
