匿名信源声称藏有南希·格思里被绑案关键视频，索要比特币
美国全国广播公司主持人萨凡纳·格思里的母亲南希失踪数月后，一封新邮件声称掌握记录其最后时刻的手机，再次引发对案件真伪的争议。
美国亚利桑那州图森市，84岁的南希·格思里自2月1日从家中失踪，至今下落不明。她是美国全国广播公司（NBC）晨间节目《今日》主持人萨凡纳·格思里的母亲。当地警方在现场发现血迹，联邦调查局（FBI）随后公布了一名蒙面人在其住所附近活动的监控画面，案件被定性为绑架。
据美国娱乐新闻网站TMZ报道，该媒体近日收到一封新邮件，发件人声称掌握一部藏匿在安全地点的手机，其中存有“主犯与南希在她可能最后一天”的短视频、两名涉案者的照片、姓名、地址和年龄。发件人要求支付一枚比特币（约合6万美元）以换取手机密码，并否认自己曾向当局提供墨西哥埋尸地的虚假线索。TMZ称已通过比特币地址和化名验证该邮件与此前多封勒索信来自同一人，已将邮件转交FBI。
此前，调查人员已收到多封据信可能真实的勒索信。一封最初要求数百万美元加密货币以换取南希生还，另一封则称她已在绑架后不久意外死亡。萨凡纳·格思里在节目中公开恳求知情者提供线索，称家人“生活在痛苦中”，并强调悬赏金已超过120万美元。
围绕这些通信的真实性，调查圈内出现分歧。部分调查人员认为所有勒索要求均为骗局，另一些人则因南希仍无踪迹而持谨慎态度。FBI尚未公开确认任何信件的真伪。目前，案件仍在调查中，当局呼吁公众通过止罪热线匿名提供信息，悬赏金额累计超过120万美元。
