Woman arrested after faking kidnapping 4 times to extort her mom

A 30-year-old w𒉰oman has been arrested on the Spanish island of Tenerife forto extort her ♍mother.

The womanꦗ allegedly sent her mother a video earlier this week that showed her blindfolded and smeared with blood. In the clip , a man is also seen behind her𝓰 with a knife.

“Mommy. They’ve kidnapped me,” the woman sobs.

“You can’t say anything toꩵ the police. If you do, they’ll kill me.”

She goes on to say how her captors beat her and deprived her of food. According to a statement by the Civil 🦋Guard, she told her mother the kidnappers would release her for 50,000 euros ($50,000).

This was not the first time the woman’s mother received such a disturbing demand. Investigators later found out that the mother previously made three payments totaling $45,000, also in response to threats on her daughter’s life.

Shockingly, the Tenerife debacle is not the only abduction hoax in recent memory. Earlier this year, The Post covered the case of Sherri Papini, the Ca🍬lifornia “super mom” who pleaded guilty in Apriꦛl to faking her November 2016 disappearance.

Papinꦅi allegedly staged the kidnapping with the help of her ex-boyfriend, whom she subsequently lived with during the three weeks that law enforcement desperately searched for her.

In court, she admitted to d🎶efrauding the California Victim Compensation Board of $30,694.50.
