    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a platform that enables a user to issue a mass message to mobile telecommunications devices within a particular radius of the users' location. The platform may be configured to transmit the communication to the proximate mobile devices without the user providing the contact information for the proximate mobile devices. The communication may be embodied as, but not limited to, for example, a Multimedia Messaging Service. The platform may be enabled to provide, along with the communication, a time-stamp and geo-coordinates tied to the user issuing the communication. In turn, based on the geo-coordinates and the time stamp, the platform may calculate a radius in which to issue the communication. The platform may then determine which mobile telecommunications devices are within the radius, retrieve the contact information for the mobile devices, and transmit, or cause a transmission of, the communication.
