Wang, who lived in a rented house with common bathrooms, heard of a nude photograph blackmail on the news and decided to try something similar, they said.
He sneaked into a bathroom and hid his mobile phone, pointing the camera at the shower. He returned after some time and found his phone had recorded a woman showering.
He copied the video on to a disk, wrote a note demanding 5,000 yuan for the footage and sent them to the woman. The woman called the police and Wang was arrested.
