Shape theft is a crime against mathematical constants in which a fundamental shape, often a triangle, is "stolen" from a volume of space.

Famous examples of shape theft include the near-instantaneous disassembly of the Eiffel Tower (triangle theft), the delapidation of the Great Pyramid at Cheops (cuboid theft), and the simultaneous multiple abductions of the Hula Hoop craze and the Frisbee craz (circle theft).
