How to deal with sextortion and where to complain?

I got scammed in Feb 2020 by someone posing as real female escort on WhatsApp chat. They first took 200rs from me and sent a few nude pictures of a female. Afterwards, I asked for real meet and then they asked for money and kept asking until they had got 6000rs. At that point, I realised they were scamming me. Then they blocked me. I recently complained on cyber crime website anonymously. I sent full transcript of my WhatsApp chat without sharing my number or the nude female photos. I also shared screenshots of the payments made from my payment app. My account number was partially visible (only last 4 digits) but transaction number was visible completely. Will I get charged with breaking any law for making such payments even though I got scammed?
