Strange. Tell him what if you file a theft case against him?
you were not liable to pay anything to the broker and for that there is nothing wrong on you in making stop payment. I dont find any reason for the broker to file report and have a case on you.

Dear Sir / Madam,
In today's world, never make advance payments to anybody. You remain committed to honour transactions entered into by the broker on your behalf, and you are unnecessarily creating avenues for misuse.
Whilst trading in any commodity transacted on the MCX, insist on the broker giving you a contract note binding him into the transaction, before making any payment.

Hi,
You must ask him to produce evidence of a legal debt through written communication. Even then if he sends you a legal notice then send him a proper legal reply which is important to substantiate your defence in case he files a case.
He will not suceed in his intentions dont worry.
Regards
