This is a great question - even with social media blowing everything out of proportion, you never really hear of this scenario. Be interesting to get stats on this.
EDIT: so quick google-fu "A 2003 study tried to break down those numbers. Marlene Dalley and Jenna Ruscoe, then with the RCMP's National Missing Children Services, studied the 90 stranger abduction missing child reports that had been entered into the national police database in 2000 and 2001. They found just two of those children had been abducted by someone other than a relative or a close family friend"
