The cost of being caught is incredibly high for the employee - they have to illegally download and store, and distribute, the illegal imagery! and commit fraud, and probably commit contempt of court, and be prepared for the fallout from the falsely accused and their family.
There's undoubtedly far easier ways for an corrupt employee to get extra cash that don't risk getting a conviction for sexual offences and for fraud/deception.
Moreover, your work colleagues have an incentive to report you too.
I'm not going to say no-one would ever, but the level of short-sighted stupidity needed is very very high.
This seems a trivial crime to commit. Use an unmonitored public computer to download your illegal imagery to a USB drive, write a little autorun script to copy it half-randomly around and change some names, and boom - done.
Sure there's some chance of the employee being caught, but more than likely they won't be. Plus, why would your work colleagues report you (once, for $500) when they can make their own $500 repeatedly?
Remember, and this is the important part - criminals are not typically longterm thinkers. They don't think about retirement, medical expenses, or even next week. They're simply interested in obtaining the thing they want today and believe, reasonably or not, that they can get away with it.
A >>former-friend<< was running an illegal FTP full of software on Macs at CompUSA for years through their firewall even. Don't think it doesn't happen.
Its like weed growers on state-federal owned land. Worst thing that happens is they loose their job, in most cases. Woop .. flip burgers.
