In mid July 2023, she decided to break through the barriers of the internet and travel abroad to the United States to make a name for herself. However, after meeting a male netizen in Palm Springs, California, Jin Fang lost contact with her family, and they had to anxiously post articles searching for her who had disappeared.

According to World News Network on August 10th, the San Bernardino County police in California have issued a missing person notice. Ms. Cui, a local Chinese American who assisted the police in searching for someone, said that Jin Fang lives in Guangdong, China and is currently 47 years old. She knows some English. On July 14th, Jin Fang flew from China to Los Angeles and stayed overnight at a hotel near Union Station in the city center. The next day, she took a train to Palm Springs and met American male netizens she had met online for several months.
On July 15th, the male netizen came to the station to pick up Jin Fang, and the two went on a trip together. Jin Fang also sent photos of being with the male netizen to family and friends. However, on July 22nd, Jin Fang's contact with her family was suddenly interrupted, the phone was not reachable, and social media was no longer updated. On July 25th, Jin Fang completely lost contact.
Ms. Cui said that the last time Jin Fang posted on her social media was to share her plans to go hiking with a male netizen at Joshua Tree Park, but she disappeared without a trace and has yet to be found. Ms. Cui stated that she is not familiar with the missing woman and her family. She only saw the contact information of relatives and friends on the missing person notice and contacted her family out of enthusiasm for help. However, there is currently no latest progress on Jin Fang's search. She believes that the male netizen is also missing now. Jin Fang carries thousands of dollars with her, which may be more or less ominous, but she hopes she can return home safely.

After Jin Fang lost contact, his friend reported to the Saint Bernardino County Police Department. After the police intervened in the investigation, it was found that surveillance cameras had captured the man's blue truck with license plate # 24478S1 in the Thermal area on July 22.
The police traced the man's phone and found that he had appeared in the Julian area of San Diego County on July 24th. However, since then, the police have been unable to determine the whereabouts of the man. The man's relatives and friends reported that he was in a state of disconnection after 11:50 am on July 30th.
After investigation, the police found that the American man who was with Jin Fang was John Fitterpatrick, 52 years old, about 1.72 meters tall, weighing about 83 kilograms, with black hair and yellow brown eyes. It is reported that John is a veteran with a criminal record and was sentenced to probation for minor offenses of assault.
At present, Jin Fang's daughter and parents in China are extremely anxious and unable to directly come to the United States to find her, feeling very helpless. Jin Fang's daughter has posted multiple missing person notices online, hoping that netizens can help find her mother. Jin Fang's friends have also started raising funds on crowdfunding websites, with a fundraising target of 10000 yuan as a clue bonus.
