FBI and police dismiss a ransom note tied to the missing mother of NBC anchor Savannah Guthrie as a scam.
Authorities investigating the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie have determined that a recently reported message claiming to be connected to her case is not credible. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department shared the update after investigators reviewed information about the message with the FBI. Officials are continuing to encourage the public to report suspicious communications and avoid responding to unverified claims.
Authorities have issued an additional warning about potential scams connected to the
case. They advise people not to send money or disclose personal information in response to unsolicited messages. Such precautions can help individuals protect themselves from misleading claims and financial requests that have not been verified by investigators.
