A man who claims to know the identity of Nancy Guthrie’s kidnapper has sent a chilling note demanding $65,000 from her family.

The mother of NBC anchor Savannah Guthrie disappeared in the early hours of February 1 after being dropped off at her home in Tucson, Arizona.

A masked man was caught on Nancy’s doorcam but was so well covered he couldn’t be easily recognized in the footage released on Tuesday.

‘I am not being taken seriously,’ the email sent to TMZ read, after the first note was sent on Wednesday.

Further ‘ominous’ statements were supposedly made in the email were not disclosed at the request of police and the FBI.

The person who sent the email demanded a single Bitcoin, which is worth about $65,000, as payment for their information.

The anonymous email author claimed in the note that they would need money ‘to lay low after identifying the kidnapper for fear of retaliation’.

They further noted concerned over being ‘incriminated like that Carlos guy.’

More to come.
