Will the law firm send a text message for collection?

Legal analysis: the law firm will not send text messages for collection. This kind of short message collection is false and fraudulent, and a large amount may constitute a criminal offence. In addition to the routine telephone bombing and address book explosion, the collection personnel especially like to send a lawyer's letter, claiming that if they don't pay back the money immediately, they will sue the court. Most of the lawyer's letters issued by online loans are fake. This kind of lawyer's letter is sent through WeChat and SMS, which is not formal at all.

Legal basis: Article 266 of the Criminal Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) defrauds public or private property, and if the amount is relatively large, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance, and shall also or only be fined; If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years and shall also be fined; If the amount is especially huge or there are other especially serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment, and shall also be fined or confiscated. Where there are other provisions in this Law, such provisions shall prevail.
