Not a money pump unless there’s some path back to “trust me enough that I can extort you again”, but that’s unlikely related to ethical framework.
I don’t understand this. Why would paying out to an extortionist once make you disbelieve them when they threatened you a second time?
You may still believe they will (try to) kill you if you don’t pay. The second time you stop believing that they will not kill you if you do pay.
