Cameron Stuart Hore,27 year old,from Christchurch was arrested and charged with sexual exploitation, obtaining by deception, and sexual grooming through online internet contact.
Hore created fake facebook profile with the name "Sarah Ruddenklau" and upload a picture of a young woman in a tan coloured shirt with long, brown and blonde hair.
This fake profiel used to lure in boys, some as young as 11. He sent them nude pictures through his fake identity and persuaded them to take pictures of themselves and to perform sexual acts through webcam.
He also created another Facebook account under the name of Dan McPherson, offering as much as $1,000 to $4,000 to the young boys if they would let him use them sexually. Several allegedly agreed, sending him their names, addresses, and bank accounts. However, he never made good with his promise and no money was ever paid.
Police still do not know who the woman in the picture that Hore used is and are still looking for information.
Detective Sergeant Scott Anderson of Christchurch South Police has said that they would be very interested in hearing from anyone who might know who the woman in the picture is.
