British adult film star ‘sleeps with knife next to her bed after crazed fan got her address through Amazon wish list’
Mia Maffia, 25, bombarded with letters and packages of drugs from the sinister admirer who bought her treats online
A GLAMOUR model claims she is forced to sleep with a knife beside her bed after a crazed fan got her home address through her Amazon wish list.
Webcam star Mia Maffia, 25, has been bombarded with letters and packages full of drugs from the sinister admirer, who poses with a mask and a baseball bat on his Twitter profile.
Mia created the wish list so her 68,700 Twitter followers could send her "treats".
Items on her current list include Haribo sweets, leather boots, an iPhone 6 and a hookah-pipe shaped like a dildo.
Despite a warning on Amazon's customer help page, she did not realise her home address could be exposed to anyone who opted to send her a gift through the site.
Mia claims she was forced to flee her home after one obsessed fan turned nasty and began threatening her and bombarding her home with letters and parcels.

The Leeds glamour girl said: "My wish list has been quite productive in the past and I've received loads of gifts.
"I have fans who want to treat me to stuff and it has always been great up until this one man who started to buy me lots of stuff.
"The man started writing letters and sending gifts to my home address. He even sent me a package containing Tramadol and weed.
"I said to him 'listen baby, I really appreciate the gifts but I haven't got the time to give you the attention you need'. I told him to treat himself to something nice next time instead.
"Then he got angry and started sending me messages saying someone must have said something about him to me.
"He said 'I'm getting angry now' and called English people 'f***ing c***s'.
"The last message I received said 'you have got until six o'clock tonight to explain yourself'.
"I looked on this guy's news feed and there's ISIS videos of people being beheaded and girls being tortured.
"I had to flee to my friend's house for a couple of days. I'm still terrified and double-check all my doors and windows before going to bed.
"I even sleep with a knife next to my bed because he's got my address so he could be watching me at any time."
Mia believes her address was revealed to the fan when he cancelled a purchase and was sent a confirmation notice.
She said: "I want to tell girls to just be aware that your address on Amazon wish lists is not secure.
"I always just assumed it would be safe but people can get access to it quite easily."
Mia's pal, model and former X-Factor contestant Holly Pearl, says she had a similar experience.
Holly said: "I have a wish list but I'm considering deleting it now.
"It's awful that it has happened and is completely out of order. The reason wish lists exist are to protect your address.
"I think Amazon need to rectify this problem - it's a real breach of trust and safety."
Amazon UK's states: "Your delivery address may be visible to someone who purchases an item for you from your List."
A spokesman for the retail giant said: "We would not comment on individual cases."
