A knock at the door, handwritten notes, and 44 days of surveillance.

In November of 2019,  34-year-old Amber Aiaz and her daughter, 13-year-old Melissa Fu vanished from their apartment in Irvine, California.

Amber’s husband, Cheng claimed a Chinese couple in their 40’s knocked on the door, sprayed him in the face with a substance that rendered him unconscious for hours and abducted Amber and Melissa.

As the investigation into the disappearance progressed, detectives uncovered lies that may have been a motive for something sinister.

If you have any information about the disappearance of Amber Aiaz or Melissa Fu, contact the FBI's Los Angeles Field Office at (310) 477-6565. Tips may also be submitted anonymously online at tips.fbi.gov.

If you’re outside the US contact the nearest American Embassy or Consulate.
