Family of Woman Missing in Las Vegas Says They Have Received Mysterious Texts Asking for ‘Help, Gas Money and Bitcoin’

Goods' niece Alana Calloway said that she began to fear her aunt was kidnapped after she received a text asking for gas money, as Goods does not drive.

Goods' daughter Kristen Goods said she also worries for her mother's safety.

"I am hoping to God for the best, but my heart can't take what it could be, which is the worst," Kristen told CBS News. 

Goods' friend, Roger John, lived in an apartment near S. Maryland Parkway and Tropicana Avenue, according to local outlet KLAS. She allegedly told John she was heading to the CVS located on Paradise Road and Harmon Avenue to purchase iron pills.

"It's just sad because she's the nicest person you would meet," John told KLAS of his missing friend, who he said he has known Goods for nine years.

Goods' son, Keven Newton, also reported receiving strange messages from her phone.

"Just give my mother back," Newton told the outlet. "I don't know what y'all got going on, but this ain't it."

Calloway described Goods as a "superstar" in an interview with KLAS.

"People gravitate towards her," Calloway told the outlet. "She lights up any room she walks in. They love her," Calloway said. "She has such a welcoming and warm personality and just filled with so much love." 

PEOPLE has reached out to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, which is investigating the missing persons case.
