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

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<\/a>.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

She never came back.<\/p>\n

“Last I saw her, she was going down the stairs. And I said, \u2018OK, see you later,\u2019 And that\u2019s the last time I saw her,” John told the station.<\/p>\n

John said he initially wasn’t alarmed because Goods sometimes spent hours out shopping<\/a>. When she didn’t return, he began calling and texting her without success and later contacted her family.<\/p>\n

“This is not like her to just go missing,” Goods’ niece, Alana Calloway, told the outlet. “She has a family that loves her, cares about her. We want her home and want her home safe and alive.”<\/p>\n

On Aug. 12, Goods’ family says messages started coming from her phone.<\/p>\n

The person asked for gas money and Bitcoin, requests the family found suspicious because Goods doesn’t drive and didn’t have a car in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

“I said, \u2018What do you need gas for? The car?\u2019 My aunt does not drive. There is no car,” Calloway told CBS News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The family says they still don\u2019t know who is texting from Goods\u2019 phone<\/a>, raising the possibility that she had been kidnapped.<\/p>\n

“If they have her phone, there’s a possibility that they have her,” Calloway told the outlet. “I want to know that she’s OK and that she is alive.”<\/p>\n

The family has checked local hospitals, jails and the coroner’s office but has found no sign of Goods. Her daughter, Kristen, traveled to Las Vegas to help search for her.<\/p>\n

“I am hoping to God for the best, but my heart can’t take what it could be, which is the worst,” Kristen Goods told the station.<\/p>\n

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police<\/a> (LVMPD) told CBS News that Goods’ missing person case remains active and asked anyone with information to contact investigators.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital has reached out to LVMPD but did not immediately hear back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
