Nancy Guthrie, the mother of 'Today' show host Savannah Guthrie, was kidnapped from her Arizona home in February. According to new details, a ransom note demanding millions of dollars in Bitcoin within seven days was left behind. The note warned the family not to 'play games,' suggesting that the kidnappers were serious about their demands.

The note also included specific details about Guthrie's Arizona home, indicating that the kidnappers had been inside. This revelation raises concerns about the level of sophistication and planning involved in the kidnapping.

Authorities have received multiple anonymous messages after the kidnapping, with some demanding Bitcoin and others describing Guthrie as 'safe but scared.' However, it is unclear whether these messages are authentic or from a single individual.
