Privacy of Celebrities
By:David Skul
Enjoying your afternoon tea in your home alone with your favorite muffins? Imagine Justin Timberlake doing just that. Well, it can be almost impossible.
Being a celebrity means you are now a public property. You can no longer walk alone in the malls. You cannot sip your drinks during breakfast alone anymore. People will scream around you and fight for your autograph. It is hard to walk around without people interrupting you now and then for autograph. That has not included paparazzi snapping your pictures.
Snapping picture of you filling up the petrol is not dangerous, right?
Picture this. You are a celebrity. You have tons of fans. They went to your concert and stay for the signing session. You sit on the table for 3 hours giving autographs. Your hands ached and people go home satisfied having your autograph.
Being a celebrity, you cannot be absolutely sure that all of your fans are angelic. If not your own fans, maybe their friends or acquaintances will be the not-so-innocent one. The autograph they attain from you can be forged. And all kinds of dangers will be exposed to you. Professional forgers will be able to copy your autograph in no time. And who might know, they will eventually tag along with you and eventually steal your valuable things.
Using the signature they have duplicated from your autograph, they will be able to use your credit card easily. Not that they cannot do it in the first place but once they “learn” your autograph, they can use the credit card to its maximum. Celebrity of course will have a collection of this plastic magic and these smart thieves will only need one of them. They shop; they dine and have fun under your name.
What is even worse than going on shopping spree with a credit card is when they have access to all your valuable accounts. As a celebrity is famous enough for everybody to know, criminal cam initiate a celebrity from top-to-toe and access the celebrity’s bank account. Using their signature, criminals are able to get whatever they wanted.
People may think that it is ridiculous to think that way but a case has proved to be true. One of Robert de Niro’s look alike has been caught for forging his autograph while staying at a hotel. Forging de Niro’s autograph and claiming to be him is made it even easier. So it will not be at all difficult if other people try to do the same thing next time. Who knows that this will start a series of new crimes?
This however does not mean that celebrities should stop giving away autographs. What another alternative that a celebrity can take is that maybe they can opt to have different autograph; one for the fan and another for a more formal business. It may be a bit tiring but it is better to be well-equipped. An autograph my just be another scribbling game, so why not scribble even more.
