Reading now: 546
post that went viral on social media that advised people who were lost to change their voicemail to reveal their location in hopes it will help rescuers find them.
The viral post, published on Oct. 21, advised people who may be stranded due to getting lost while hiking or car troubles, and have a phone that’s low on battery or signal, to change their voicemail so it reveals the person’s exact location.
According to the post, the person should provide "the time, the date, your situation (lost, out of gas, car broken down, injured, etc) and any special instructions such as you are staying with the car, you are walking toward a town, etc." While it sounded like sage advice, the Alpine Rescue Team said this was a bad idea.
