How not to kidnap yourself, extort your parents and get wasted
How not to kidnap yourself, extort your parents and get wasted
written by Thomas Graham May 18, 2016
A man from northern Colombia went to extreme lengths to get more money from his parents by kidnapping himself and extorting his own family for millions of pesos.
The 22-year-old went missing a month ago from his parents’ house in Sincelejo, the capital of the Sucre province.
Not long after his family began receiving photos showing their him bruised and bloodied, tied to a chair. The photos came with a message demanding money for his release.
The photos were reasonably convincing and the horrified parents paid seven million pesos to secure his release.
