What is the definition of extortion?

Extortion is defined as the isolation or perceived isolation of an individual in an attempt to obtain funds. As an employee of a financial institution, the possibility of being victimized by extortion increases. The purpose of this procedure is to design a plan of action to minimize the physical danger to you, your co-workers, and members. 

In most cases, specific instructions are given by the extortionist regarding the amount and denominations of money, container, drop point, deadline, and delivery route in the call. The extortionist will also be adamant against notification of law enforcement agencies. The caller will try to create panic. An action plan will help eliminate panicked, illogical decisions made by you or your co-workers.
