More than one perpetrator insults or threatens people or deliberately humiliates them online or via their mobile phone. Cyberbullying takes place over a sustained period.
Harassment in cyberspace can take many forms, from text-based threats or defamation to images and videos involving you or people you know. If you feel threatened or intimidated, contact the police; otherwise, simply ignore these messages.
