    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.

    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 don’t think so.

      You rather need confidence you will always stay so much more powerful than the “other side” that you will always be able to milk them. And maybe think about preparing your retirement in time.

      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?

    I would bring a ringer with my dirty undies instead of the ransom and throw it out the car.
