Nutty fan steals AKB48's mail and has it sent to his addy

Nutty fan steals AKB48's mail and has it sent to his addy photo

People are capable of doing lots of scary things, to be sure, but for me one of the worst is the type who will hack into your email or read all your text messages in your cell phone. One crazed fan of the all-girl pop band AKB48 decided to go this route recently. Since the Japanese post office does not require proof of ID when changing your address, he decided to change their mailing address to his own so he could receive their mail instead.

Japan Probe reports that the man registered his own address as one of the members of the band between September and October of last year. The member in question reported she was no longer receiving her mail and the police were able to uncover the whole scheme from there. Further investigation revealed he had registered his address as that of eleven total members of the band (it has forty in total). He was quoted as saying "I just wanted some of their stuff, I didn't care what."

I guess it's not up there with peering into their window and whacking off in the bushes, but it's up there. What do you think is the creepiest thing a stalker can do?
