December 15, 20205 yr From South China Morning Post Seven people in Hong Kong were arrested on Monday in connection with a job scam in which men were offered large sums to work as performers for gay pornographic videos and exclusive live shows, only to find themselves allegedly threatened with blackmail after having their pay withheld. Male spectators who shelled out HK$700 (US$90) each to watch the men take part in sex shows in four- and five-star hotels could also purportedly pay for sex with performers afterwards, according to police. The live performances were held four days a month, with about eight shows a day, each lasting about an hour. “Each show could involve as many as four actors, but no more than two spectators were allowed,” said Senior Inspector Ku Man-kai, of the New Territories South regional crime unit. He said the victims were promised as much as HK$1,000 an hour for filming and live performances, and were told they could earn as much as HK$50,000 a month when they were enticed into signing contracts with an internet user who claimed to be in charge of a bogus pornography production company called iSexParty. “The victims were also told that the videos of their sex acts would be provided to a small group of clients for viewing,” Superintendent Chen Chi-cheong said. The scam came to light after one of the victims said he did not receive payment and refused to do the show, only to be told that he would have to pay compensation for violating the contract and that videos of his sex acts would be circulated online. “According to the contract, spectators could choose an actor in the live show for sex and the actor could not refuse, otherwise they would have to pay compensation for violating the contract,” Chen said.
December 15, 20205 yr Wow, for a high end, private live sex show, only usd90? Thats a tell-tale of a scam, too good to be true. Maximum 2 spectator only, paying usd90, thats usd180, and the performers were promised usd100 per hour, up to 4 performer a show? The math didnt add up. Not to mention the price of 4-5 star hotel where to show is happening.
