An anonymous individual has contacted US media outlets claiming to have seen missing grandmother Nancy Guthrie in Mexico and is demanding 1 Bitcoin, valued at approximately $70,000 (approximately £52,400), in exchange for disclosing her precise location. The claim has not been corroborated by law enforcement and should be treated with caution.
Nancy Guthrie, 84, the mother of 'Today' show presenter Savannah Guthrie, was reported missing from her Tucson home on 1 February. Investigators in Pima County believe she was abducted, citing blood evidence found at the property and doorbell camera footage of a masked suspect. The FBI has been involved since early in the investigation and has maintained communication with Mexican authorities given Arizona's proximity to the border, though no confirmed sighting of Nancy has been established since her disappearance.
