Benedict Arnold, a general during the American Revolutionary War, engaged in espionage by betraying the American cause to the British. He secretly communicated military plans and troop movements to the British, aiming to facilitate their capture of West Point, a strategic fort on the Hudson River. His treachery was uncovered in 1780, leading to his defection to the British side, where he received a commission and financial rewards. Arnold's actions made him one of the most infamous traitors in American history.
