Got a lot more threating messages from another number

Claiming to know the Ames Iowa number from Burlington Iowa. Is this a spam/scare tactic. They threaten to kill me via text if I don’t pay 2900.00 or some shit? I one from numbers ever made an effort to contact me. I’m done with this shit! I quit!
Number one, this is not an Encounter Report, it belongs in Co-ed Discussions. Second, tell them you are showing this to the police. Then do that.
I think it counts as an encounter want the phone numbers
