Mystery sender claims to have Nancy Guthrie's final-day video, demands 1 Bitcoin for evidence

LOS ANGELES, CA: The mystery surrounding Nancy Guthrie's death has taken another dramatic turn after an anonymous individual claimed to possess previously unseen evidence allegedly documenting her final day alive, demanding one Bitcoin in exchange for releasing the material.

The latest message, first reported by TMZ, alleges the sender has a video showing Guthrie alongside an alleged kidnapper shortly before her disappearance, as well as photographs and a hidden cellphone said to contain additional evidence.

The outlet reported that it authenticated the email as originating from the same source behind earlier anonymous messages linked to the case before forwarding the correspondence to the FBI.

The claims remain unverified, and federal authorities have not publicly confirmed the authenticity of the alleged evidence or whether it is connected to the ongoing investigation.

Anonymous message raises fresh questions  

According to TMZ, the sender insisted they would provide the purported evidence only after receiving one Bitcoin, a demand that immediately raised concerns about the credibility and motive behind the communication.

The message allegedly claims the hidden phone contains additional images and recordings connected to Guthrie's disappearance. In response, TMZ reportedly declined to make any payment and instead requested proof that the sender actually possesses the material described.

The outlet also shared the latest correspondence with the FBI, which continues investigating the circumstances surrounding Guthrie's death.

Investigators remain publicly cautious

The latest development injects new uncertainty into a case that has generated widespread public attention and repeated online speculation.

While the anonymous sender portrays the alleged files as critical evidence, investigators have not indicated whether the claims are credible or whether they have uncovered any information supporting the existence of the purported video or hidden cellphone.

Authorities have also not announced any new suspects or confirmed that the alleged kidnapper referenced in the email is connected to the official investigation.

For now, the Bitcoin demand represents only another unverified claim in a case that continues to attract anonymous tips.

Until investigators authenticate the alleged material, questions surrounding Guthrie's final hours and whether the mystery sender truly possesses new evidence remain unanswered.
