Norwegian Woman Possibly Abducted And Abductors Demand 9 Million EUROs Worth Of Monero
The wife of one of Norway's richest men, Anne-Elisabeth Falkevik Hagen, was abducted October 31, and there has been no sign of her since. The abductor(s) left a note in badly written English where they demand 9 million EUROs worth of Monero. This is above 1% of XMR's circulating supply: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero/.
Such a thing has never happened before in Norway, and it is still kind of surreal.
If you see her, you should contact the Norwegian police.

@janusface,
Sometimes decentralization could bring problems! Anyway I like that innovative thought to demand price in Monero! In next up, it might worth Billions of $!
Cheers~
We will see more and more such requests in abduction cases, most criminals are dumb but that doesnt mean they cant learn. Monero is "perfect" in a way to do things smooth when it comes to the money part. I hope she makes it.
Yeah, I hope she is alright too. Never used XMR myself.
The security in Norway is very good, I suppose they let their guard down and some criminals decided to take advantage of this.
Not really. Norwegians are extremely naive because we until recently had a homogenous population since the Stone Age. But a few more abductions like this will perhaps harden us.
I am sorry to hear that in a so advanced country these things happen. Times are changing, like the Norwegian population, and you need harder ways to face this fact.
Problem is that rich people are easy meat in Norway. The tax returns are realized so it is very easy to so localize the potential targets. Hopefully, the richest will take more precautions and increase security.
Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

Oh wow! I didnt hear of this.. and what was the outcome?!
She has not been found yet. I do not think the husband has paid the ransom.
