The bitcoin account associated with Nancy Guthrie’s expired ransom began showing activity Tuesday evening.
About $152 worth of bitcoin appeared in the account’s publicly viewable logs — with the funds arriving after a single transaction was made.
That cash value came from .0022 bitcoin deposited in the account.
It remains unclear where the money came from. Anybody who obtained a copy of the ransom note would have been able to wire funds to it.
The mysterious deposit was made at around 7 p.m. ET, TMZ founder Harvey Levin told Fox News’ Sean Hannity.
Levin, who has read the first ransom note sent out by Guthrie’s purported captors, revealed his outlet had been checking the link of the account since they received it.
“There are reasons that I have been careful with my words and it obviously has to do with sourcing and I am just not at liberty to talk about amounts right now,” Levin said.
“This is a complicated case and we gave our word on something and we’re gonna stick by that,” he said.
The ransom note was described as “so well constructed” that it made Levin believe a “really intelligent person” wrote
“They know how to express a thought, they have thought this out, they are to the point. They cover everything they need to cover,” said Levin who was left baffled by a careless mistake the suspected kidnapper made.
A masked and armed individual was captured on video walking up to the front door of Guthrie’s home on Feb. 1, seemingly unaware of the doorbell camera recording his movement.
“You look at this and there’s something bumbling about it where this person took enough care to completely cover himself except for seeing a mustache and either a goatee or a beard and yet he doesn’t realize that there’s a camera on that door and that suddenly surprises him enough that he has to stoop down and grab some brush to try and cover the camera,” Levin explained.
“That doesn’t align to me with somebody as methodical as what I believe the person who wrote that note.”
