She Wired Him $34,000: The Kent York Romance Scam

Fear that someone you trust online is lying to you - a cattle rancher in New Mexico wired $34,000 after six weeks of messages from a woman who claimed UN logistics work, and a cardboard banker’s box with 112 pages later turned the case over to the FBI. How did a quiet ranch life, a newly created social account, and a rooster-topped box lead to federal investigators asking more questions than answers?

In this episode, we follow the timeline from a meter reader finding a box on January 9, 2022 to the discovery that the box was placed at 3:40 a.m. by the homeowner himself, and how that paper trail connected a rural New Mexico ranch to transfer destinations and a victim in Colorado. What did the 112 pages of bank statements, wire confirmations, screenshots and one handwritten note actually reveal about the money and the messages?

Person: Kent York
Date: January 9, 2022
Location: Cibola Flats, New Mexico
Event: 112 printed pages found in a cardboard box
Case: Referred to the FBI Albuquerque field office within 48 hours
