A Brooklyn woman who acted as a phone receptionist for a hooker ring run by the Gambino crime family pleaded guilty yesterday to charges of aiding prostitution.

Suzanne Porcelli, of Bensonhurst, admitted taking calls from clients seeking call girls and then passing on the information to the man running the sex ring.

The calls came through to a cellphone carried by Porcelli, whose duties also included arranging appointments and assigning reputed mob associates to drive the women to their customers, officials said.

“SHE HAD A VERY MINOR ROLE, WHICH WAS CLERICAL IN NATURE AND NOTHING MORE,” said VINCENT ROMANO, Porcelli’s attorney.

All of the call girls working for the sex ring were under 20, officials said, and at least one was 15.

As part of a plea agreement, Porcelli will face 18 to 24 months in prison when she is sentenced on Jan. 21.
