WHAT IS EXTORTION?
Extortion is a type of white collar crime that occurs when a person threatens violence against another person or persons to illegally obtain monetary compensation. People may also commit extortion to receive other types of valuable goods or services. When extortion is committed, the victim will be threatened with physical violence or coerced into giving the offender what he/she wants. Extortion is very similar to blackmail because the offender is using force to guarantee a desired outcome. In the United States, extortion is a felony offense that can lead to imprisonment if the person is convicted.
