Police also uncovered one location believed to have been used as a call centre by the syndicate.

They seized items such as cash, laptops, hand phones, bank books, ATM cards, phone cards, and also a white board used to record schedules of sexual services.

Photos on vice rings' websites usually come with each girl's vital statistics, the services she provides and whether she can stay the night. Bookings are typically arranged via SMS and the meetings take place in a hotel or someone's home. The latest syndicate busted charged $160 to $260 per 'transaction'. -- PHOTO: ASIADOLLIES.COM

An islandwide anti-vice operation by the police this week netted a huge prize - the uncovering of a sophisticated online prostitution ring, run out of a rented condominium unit here.

The vice racket, now smashed, was allegedly run by a 32-year-old Singaporean who used the apartment as a call centre, complete with whiteboards showing the schedules of his stable of Thai and Korean sex workers.

His operations also included a network of runners and a team of call operators, said the police in a statement on Thursday.

The man even had a webmaster who allegedly managed four websites, which the police have tracked down.

Three of the websites are believed to be hosted on foreign servers, while the remaining one is not in use.
