PRANKSTERS played hardcore porn at a webinar for hundreds of charity workers. X-rated content was pumped on to everyone’s screens during a virtual event on fundraising. As guests gasped and yelped, graphic footage continued for more than ten minutes while organisers scrambled to fix the issue. More than 900 people had joined the “Meet the Expert” event hosted by fundraisers Get Grants on Tuesday.

They were listening to a speaker from the Charity Excellence Framework, based in Aylesbury, Bucks. But just minutes in, explicit content popped up — to the disgust of many watching. One woman was heard saying: “Thank you, I’m leaving.”. Another gasped: “Oh my God”. At least four hardcore videos were aired. Yesterday an attendee, who asked not to be named, told The Sun: “It was a run-of-the-mill charity webinar and all of a sudden there was hardcore porn playing.

"It was shocking, but also hilarious. At one point it seemed the organisers fixed it, then more porn blasted out. "I couldn’t contain myself, me and my colleague were on the floor dying from laughter.”. Charity Excellence Framework founder Ian McLintock said: “I was presenting our AI launch webinar and somehow pranksters took control of my screen and streamed inappropriate content to the attendees.
