Hawaii woman sent cryptic texts before disappearing in California

Family members say Kobayashi started sending numerous cryptic text messages saying she didn't feel safe and that someone was trying to steal her funds.

One alarming message to a friend read, "I got tricked pretty much into giving away all my funds. For someone I thought I loved."
