Along with others Siam Rath reported that the men persuaded "attrractive" boys under the age of 18 to submit video clips of themselves.

 

Via Twitter posts that were followed by 400,000 people these clips were then sold to around 800 members who paid 350 baht each for 4 months' access.

 

There was 100,000 baht turnover in the illegal business.

This is not a funny matter at all. These young boys were probably groomed or just naïve and didn’t know that anything they did would be put out there for dirty bastards to look at. It can have horrible mental consequences and lead to even worse abuse. Any perpetrators of young boys or girls should be punished hard. There should also be more open discussions with children about all forms of child sex abuse and the ways these pedophiles work. Too many kids fall for this and will be scared for life. 

I'm sorry, please don't put me in the tank for 20 years with anyone that will do the same to me ! Pitiful wai'ing !
