KAMLOOPS, B.C. — A Kamloops, B.C. mother whose daughter vanished in Las Vegas more than a year ago has had another setback in her search.

The networking website Facebook removed Glendene Grant from its online service. Grant says Facebook disabled her account in the mistaken belief that she was spamming other Facebook users.

Grant says she always adds her website at the end of messages she sends via Facebook and the service has now allowed her to return, but Grant has lost many of her contacts and her posts have been wiped out.

Twenty-one-year-old Jessie Foster, was last seen in Las Vegas in March of 2006.

A reward for information has now grown to $10,000 and a special U.S. task force investigating white slavery has added Foster's name to its list of cases.
