Days after a New York grandmother vanished without a trace while visiting Las Vegas, her family says they began receiving chilling text messages from her phone asking for Bitcoin.

Alisa Goods, a 63-year-old grandmother of five, was reported missing Aug. 10, two days after she was last seen leaving a friend's apartment near Maryland Parkway and Tropicana Avenue, according to her family and a missing person report obtained by KLAS-TV.

Goods was staying with her longtime friend Roger John, who told the station she left his apartment around 12:45 p.m. Aug. 8 to take a bus to a nearby CVS to pick up iron pills.

She never came back.
