Britney Spears has been sent packages and threatening letters from an obsessed fan, reports OK!.

The packages were intercepted by the troubled popstar's security team and never found their way to the singer as the fan didn't have Spears's correct address.

The stalker began to send one package a week to a Los Angeles address before "it quickly escalated to larger packages that now arrive two to three times a week - always arriving to the same LA address, but never to one of Britney’s homes".

An insider revealed: "The first thing you see when you open the box is a huge, lavender-coloured, battery-operated sex toy, still with the price tag on it."

The stalker also sent a disturbing photograph of himself with the eyes cut out.

A source compared the photos to "something from a bad movie. If I hadn’t seen it myself, I wouldn’t believe it."
