MONTREAL — A QMI Agency sting operation netted 11 men who appeared willing to have sex with a fictional 14-year-old boy whose profile was posted on a gay website.

Greater numbers of men were willing to break the law and victimize the make-believe boy than in a similar QMI sting last year using a fake girl.

The men were caught on camera in Montreal by JE — QMI's investigative broadcast unit.
