defamation notice defamation notice

3 years ago

1 month ago I called a lawyer for advice but he got angry on me and cut call. I not paid any fees to him. Posted reviews where I said wrong things also due to anger. Now got a defamation notice by a law firm on my whatsapp because they dont have my address or email. I tried to delete but websites are not allowing to delete my reviews.

1. Can there be any criminal action on me because nobody have my address ?
2. Do I have to pay 10 lakh to him for damages ?
3. any cyber crime case can be filed on me ?
