Always know the basic facts:
The kidnapper is a criminal.
The kidnapper decides his own actions, NOT YOU.
Besides that, in a situation where I could communicate with a kidnapper, I would try to use every single second of it to tell him all kinds of insults, the worst I could imagine.
“You call this a kidnapping? Pathetic. You’re a disappointment just like your father.”
“This isn’t really that bad, honestly opening emails after vacation is loads worse. Do better.”
I would bring a ringer with my dirty undies instead of the ransom and throw it out the car.
I can get you a toe, believe me.
Are you planning on setting up a kidnapping business?
You better release the hostages, or you can only do this once. If you want a recurring business model people have to have confidence you will keep your end of the bargain
I read some ransom plots throught the internet and I’m like “Why would the kidnappers even release the hostages if they already got the ransom money?”
🤔
If you look at the places where they treat it like a business, they release the hostages so they can continue doing the business. If you start killing the hostages, or not releasing them, your next victim won’t pay. What’s the point?
