The Nanjing Jiangning District Public Security Bureau has confirmed the arrest of a 38-year-old man named Jiao, who posed as a woman under the alias “Sister Hong” to deceive and exploit hundreds of unsuspecting men. The victims, ranging from university students and gym enthusiasts to married men and even foreigners, were reportedly lured into sexual encounters—many of which were secretly filmed without their knowledge.
Explicit Footage Sold for Pennies on Chinese Social Media
Authorities revealed that these non-consensual videos were then circulated and sold through Chinese social media channels at shockingly low prices—ranging from just 0.5 to 3 yuan (roughly $0.07 to $0.40 USD). Some users went as far as distributing the clips for free in a bid to boost their online popularity or promote side services, such as photography sessions or live streaming events.
One seller, when questioned, admitted:
“I just bought the footage from someone else and flipped it for profit. Some weren’t even complete clips.”
