A bid to make a debtor pay a collector from Russia’s Far East went too far and the agent now faces jail time for the distribution of child pornography.

After a resident of the city of Khabarovsk failed to pay back a loan of 18,000 rubles ($280), the credit company began pressuring him and his family with calls and text messages, threatening to expose private information. Within months, the debt had multiplied and reached $3,000.

When these methods didn’t work, the debt collector – who was motivated by the promise of a performance-related bonus – went even further to make the borrower pay. He made a pornographic photo collage using pictures of the debtor’s young daughter that he had found on social media, and posted it online.

However, internet anonymity didn’t work for the debt collector. A few months later, he was arrested by police and is now facing between three and 10 years in prison for distribution of child pornography.
