Ransom Notes Proven Fake in Nancy Guthrie Case | Charlottesville News

Ransom notes tied to Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance are fake, FBI confirms — the first two, demanding crypto and claiming she was dead, were likely staged by a hoaxer, not her abductors. The third note, promising video of her and the kidnapper, also turned out to be bogus. Authorities tested the first note by sending crypto — it vanished, proving it was a trap. DNA on the porch matches Nancy, but a glove found nearby didn’t match any national database profiles. Surveillance shows a masked intruder tampering with the doorbell camera before her vanishing. Her daughter, NBC’s Savannah Guthrie, is offering a $1 million reward and begging for tips. The case remains active, with DNA and video still under forensic review.
