A SCOTS paedo who asked a ’14-year-old girl’ to stay at his house and told her how to perform a sex act was caught in a vigilante sting.
Matthew Stone, 42, believed he was chatting to a young schoolgirl but it was actually a decoy from a paedo hunters group – and was then snared by them at Buchanan Street bus station.
The perv also asked the ‘girl’ to wear school uniform for him when she came over.
Stone, from Motherwell, pleaded guilty on Monday at Glasgow Sheriff Court to sending written sexual communication to an adult pretending to be a child, reports the Glasgow Times.

He also admitted intentionally attempting to have a child participate in sexual activity and intending to meet a child to engage in unlawful sexual behaviour.
Stone contacted what he thought was the teen girl randomly on Facebook.
He was told her age and asked if it was okay for them to be speaking, to which he replied “As long as it’s okay with you.”
In total, he sent 534 WhatsApp and text messages to the ‘girl’.
Prosecutor John Bedford said: “During the contact, Stone said he wanted to see and her for her to come to his house.
“He offered her to stay at his flat and that he would buy her a new phone.
“He said he would let her have some wine and not to tell her mum as he did not want her getting drunk and sick.
“He asked her to bring her school uniform without her mum knowing and that she was to say she is 17 when in his company.”
Sentence was deferred until next month for background reports by Sheriff Joan Kerr.
Stone was put on the sex offenders register indefinitely and granted bail meantime.
