MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) - An assistant high school wrestling coach in the Tampa area is accused tricking teen boys into sharing nude pictures of themselves.

Over the last five years Carlos Perez, 22, allegedly posed as a teen girl on social media and befriended the boys online for the past five years. Posting as Alayna Dentry he sent them nude photographs of an unknown female, and in return asked for nude photos of them.

Perez was charged with two counts of transmission of material harmful to a minor. Additional charges are possible.

Perez reportedly admitted to tricking the teens and was aware they were minors because he knew some of them personally from his work at Wesley Chapel High School in Pasco County.

It is unclear if any of the teen boys were Perez's students.
