Online Child Porn Vigilante Extortionists Arrested

Not really sure which side is more despicable in this case. Three men were arrested for trying to extort money from people who visited an online child porn website. The men apparently went into chatrooms and told people to go to their site, and then told them they would turn them in if they didn’t pay up. They’re being charged with hacking into their victims computers – but it’s unclear what actual hacking they did. The extortion part is clear, but I don’t see where the hacking occurred.
