Florida man faces charges for a revenge porn scheme where he sent photos of his estranged wife to her male co-workers.

Joshua Persaud, 37, of Lake Wales, was charged with 11 counts of sexual cyber harassment, according to news station WFLA.

Authorities said Persaud created a fake Facebook account using the name of his wife, whom he was in the process of divorcing.

Using the account, he allegedly sent more than a dozen nude photos of her to her colleagues.

Co-workers told the woman about the X-rated messages they received and she contacted authorities.

Persaud admitted to authorities that he had received the images during his marriage, but denied sending them to anyone.

But then, when asked about the Facebook messages, Persaud said, โ€œWell, [the victim] did that too. She sent pictures of me to my boss and tried to get me fired.โ€

Deputies arrested Persaud and booked him Tuesday at Polk County Jail. He was released Thursday on $500 bail.
