Maybe it's like a lottery where 1 member a month gets a kidnapping. The idea is super weird to me though.

  A friend of a friend payed for college by doing kidnappings like this. Basically, people would come to him wanting to be kidnapped, to feel a rush of adrenaline that comes with a life threatening experience. Paying his rates for kidnapping -- 10K and up -- was not something a rational person would do. His clients were similar to those of the high-end dominatrix; rich, successful, people (usually men), with deep-seated complexes. Maybe the meaning had left their lives. Maybe a past trauma had gotten them addicted to adrenaline and violence. Maybe they saw themselves a big kidnapping targets, and the faux kidnappings were just training for the real thing. Whatever the reason, people paid him to do it.
