( CNN ) -- An Indiana man allegedly blackmailed teenaged boys into being his camera `` slaves '' by threatening to post their videos on gay porn websites , a criminal complaint said . Richard Leon Finkbiner , 39 , admitted during an interrogation to victimizing at least 100 people , mostly boys 14 to 16 years old , an FBI agent said in a sworn affidavit made public Monday . `` You want to play this game , or you want to be a gay porn star ? '' Finkbiner allegedly told one victim when he demanded that he perform sex acts during a video Skype call , the federal complaint said . Finkbiner , arrested at his Brazil , Indiana , home last Friday , is charged with sexual exploitation of children involving two 14-year-old victims identified in Michigan and Maryland , court documents said . It could take months to identify many of the victims seen in thousands of video files found on Finkbiner 's computer and other digital devices , said Timothy Horty , a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney 's Office in Indianapolis . `` These victims go into chat rooms , develop a relationship and conversation with someone , '' Horty said . Finkbiner would then capture uncoerced video of the boys , who probably did not know they were talking to a 39-year-old man , he said . Finkbiner would then e-mail them a link to their own video with the threat to publish it on gay porn sites if they did not agree to become his `` cam slave . '' `` I 'll add your name and email so if anyone googles u they will see ur video , '' Finkbiner allegedly wrote to a Michigan teen in February . That teen complied , but after a second instance he `` broke down '' from stress , FBI Special Agent Ryan Barrett said . The boy `` became emotional and hysterical , and disclosed to his brother what was happening , '' Barrett said . The brother told their parents , who then contacted the Oakland County , Michigan , Sheriff 's Department , he said . An investigator tracked the e-mail address and Skype account to Finkbiner in Indiana , the agent said . An investigator in Prince George 's County , Maryland , was also on Finkbiner 's trail for a November exchange involving a 14-year-old boy , the complaint said . When shown a photo of the Maryland teen during an interrogation , Finkbiner could not recall the boy specifically because he had `` coerced the production of video and images of so many people engaged in sexually explicit conduct that he could not readily recognize every individual , '' the agent said . A search of his e-mail revealed instances in which one boy begged Finkbiner to leave him alone : `` I 'm only a kid and this is against the law so please stop doing this I beg you , '' the boy wrote . `` I wont get caught im a hacker I covered my tracks , '' Finkbiner allegedly replied . If convicted on the initial charges , Finkbiner faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison . He is scheduled to appear before a federal judge in Terre Haute , Indiana , on Wednesday . `` Our advice is never friend an individual that you do n't know personally , '' Horty said . `` Parents have to know who their children are communicating with on the Internet .
