Did/have

I see a picture of my friend and it looks like she’s in distress so I text her and ask:

Have you been kidnapped?

Or

Did you get kidnapped?


Are both OK?

levis1 Are both OK? Yes, but you're asking her for an update on her status because of how she looks now (in distress), so the more appropriate question is the first. Have you been kidnapped?
