Realistically, nothing much. They can get a rough approx location estimation, and maybe DDoS you, but I doubt it.

  1. IP Address 
  2. Country 
  3. Operating System Windows 
  4. Host Name 
    He sent that information correctly but he ruined his drama by saying that they would extradite me from my country for his supposed report to the American government._.

People seriously over-estimate how big of a deal it is to have your IP known.

 

The absolute worse that can happen is you get ddos'd, but because you're a single person not only is this not even worth doing for 99.9% of people with malicious intent, but you can easily just call your ISP and have your IP reset and the problem is neutralized entirely.

 

Nothing to worry about. If you're super paranoid then just contact your ISP and ask for an IP reset (or see if you can do it with your specific router, I know some actually have dynamic IP systems and shit but your ISP might complain if you change your IP too often.)
