I asked for help from a person whom I met on social media. He claimed to help me but now he is sending me obscene messages and asking me for sexual favors. He is also threatening me and harassing me. I want to file a cyber complaint. I have all the proofs. What should I do? What happens after I file complaint on cyber portal?
