Most of the people that do cam shows are women. Logic would dictate men are the majority of patrons. It is commonly known men are sexually aroused visually, hince the popularity of strip clubs. Women have been making money off of men in this fashion for thousands of years. This is just another method of paying for sexual stimulation. I think the OP's heart is in the right place although it seems it may be a more personal experience for them. Possibly a family member who is mentally ill who has been scammed out of a lot of money in this way.
