Legal Question in Technology Law in India

Hi i am a freelancer web designer in India and i worked for some person in France, who is not paying me my due payment. So i deleted my work from his clients website using the username and passwords he provided and put a notice on website to inform the clients about the issue.

i never signed any type of contract or and non-disclosure agreement. everything was on skype or on emails using my personal email id on gmail.

Now he is saying that he is gonna sue me for hacking in the client website and putting the notice. I just wanted to know if it is possible or not and what i can do to prevent my self?

Dear Sir / Madam,

Your matter is governed by the provisions of the Information Technology Act, 2000. Your client in France will certainly have the entire trail of email correspondence that has transpired between you and him which can be produced in the Court of law. In my opinion, it is wiser to be safe than sure. You should email a final reminder to the client saying that you are withdrawing the notice on the understanding that the agreed payment will be disbursed by the client within a week from the date of withdrawal of the notice by you from his website.

Regards,
