Greenberg appeared in Orlando, Florida, federal court, to plead guilty to six of the 33 crimes that he was charged with.
NBC News reported that Greenberg, who was in shackles, was wearing a jail jumpsuit and a blue surgical mask during his plea.
Court records say his admitted criminal conduct included using a website to identify women that he later paid to engage in sexual acts “with him and others.”
Documents said Greenberg paid more $70,000 in 150 separate transactions to pay women for sex.
