[Artemisia] OT - PLEASE READ!!! MISSING AND ENDANGERED CHILD

[Richard Samul]

A search at Americas Most Wanted and the National Center for Missing  
and Exploited Children turns up no references to either the alleged  
missing child or the alleged abductor.

A search on the mother's name reveals that she and a person with the  
last name of "Rust" gave birth to a girl on Sep. 14, 2005, which  
would make the age and gender of the child correct as of the date  
stated on the flyer.

A search of all three Salt Lake County, UT newspapers (which would  
include Taylorsville, UT) reveals there are no available news reports  
of either the alleged missing child or the alleged abductor relating  
to a missing child case. The alleged abductors name does appear in an  
obituary from 2005 as a relative of the deceased, as well as the  
aforementioned birth announcement.

Verdict: Spam/scam/fraud.
