What is the crime of insulting threats by texting?

Legal analysis: it depends on the specific situation. Threatening violates the Law on Public Security Administration Punishment and will seriously constitute a criminal offence. Simple intimidation generally does not constitute a crime, but some acts also constitute a crime, such as asking for property when threatening, which may constitute extortion.

Legal basis: Article 274 of the Criminal Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) extorts and extorts public or private property, and if the amount is relatively large or extorts and extorts repeatedly, 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 and fined.
