A 19-year-old Kentucky woman allegedly faked her own kidnapping to try and get $600 in ransom money from her father.

Abbygail Farley was reported missing by her father, Mark, on Monday, according to the Corbin Police Department.

On Tuesday, her father received a text messages from her alleged kidnappers who asked for a ransom of $600.

A short time later, he received another text dropping the ransom down to $400.

'[He] said he was receiving messages from her phone saying she had been abducted for money because she owed some money,' Lt Coy Wilson told WYMT.

The alleged abductors then gave Farley's dad a drop-off location to leave the money. That's when he contacted authorities.

After her father dropped off the money, police pinged Farley's phone and discovered she had used a text-free app to send ransom notes to her father.

Authorities later found her staying in an apartment nearby.

According to WYMT, Farley admitted to police that she made it all up and that she was never in any danger.

'We think she has a drug problem and that was the reason behind all of this,' Wilson said.

Farley was arrested and charged with falsely reporting an incident, theft by extortion, theft and disorderly conduct.

She has been placed in the Whitley County Detention Center.
