If I saw that show up on my phone then I would immediately assume that there's a warrant out for my arrest. That message would be more likely to get me to huck my phone in a stream than click the link.

That's your prerogative. Nobody is making you get saved. It's not illegal to be missing.

At least you know that folks are looking for you and can make a decision based on that info.

But if you were actually injured and/or stuck somewhere, you might be inclined to click that link (or call your mother.)
