There is really no way to be harassed and cursed by text messages. Is there any legal way to handle it?

If you receive multiple abusive messages, you can report them to the police station for handling. Whoever repeatedly sends obscene, insulting, threatening or other information and interferes with the normal life of others shall be detained for not more than five days or fined not more than 500 yuan; If the circumstances are serious, they shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than ten days and fined not more than five hundred yuan.

Legal analysis

Those who are harassed by short messages, call names, send insulting messages many times, interfere with the normal life of others, and violate the relevant provisions of the Law on Public Security Administration Punishment can call the police. Although this kind of behavior does not cause a certain social impact and does not constitute an infringement on the right of reputation, it has caused an impact on others' lives to a certain extent. Once the other party has more than three such harassing messages, they can report them directly to the local police station. Internet users and network service providers who use the Internet to infringe upon the civil rights and interests of others shall bear the tort liability. If a network user uses the network service to commit infringement, the infringed party has the right to notify the network service provider to take necessary measures such as deleting, shielding and disconnecting the link. If the network service provider fails to take necessary measures in time after receiving the notice, it shall be jointly and severally liable with the network users for the enlarged part of the damage. If the network service provider knows that the network users use their network services to infringe upon the civil rights and interests of others and fails to take necessary measures, it shall bear joint liability with the network users.
