| A triple agent is a spy who pretends to be a double agent for one side, while they are truthfully a double agent for the other side. |
A triple agent is a spy who pretends to be a double agent for one side, while they are truthfully a double agent for the other side. Unlike a re-doubled agent, who changes allegiance due to being compromised, a triple agent is usually considered to have always been loyal to their original side.
It may also refer to a spy who works for three opposing sides, such that each side thinks the spy works for them alone.
