You need to check the veracity of the call and make a help from local police station as no police DCP will call you and charge unnecessarily. Mere sending Hi on a WhatsApp number won’t bind you for any criminal offence. For any further legal assistance please feel free to contact

Thanks

this is a clear case of extortion. the person calling you, whether he is a police officer or not cannot take money from you by putting you in fear of something. this itself is a criminal offence. you may choose to ignore the person or report him to the police, if the harassment is intolerable.
