Abstract
The article discusses the issues of qualification of cyberextortion. In particular, this act is analyzed as a kind of ordinary extortion, as well as a kind of exclusively informational crime. It is concluded that in addition to the threats characteristic of article 163 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, there are also threats that are not included in the list of methods of committing a crime listed in this article, and, accordingly, the impossibility of bringing a person to criminal responsibility for a number of variations of cyberextortion under article 163 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Since it also seems problematic to qualify such acts according to the totality of article 163 and the norms of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation on crimes in the field of computer information, the author believes that it is necessary to modernize the criminal law and proposes to supplement the disposition of article 163 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation with new ways of committing this crime.
