Sure you can be sued - and probably will be. Whether they
can make a claim for slander or defamation stick is somewhat
irrelevant. It will cost you thousands to defend yourself.
If you have been defrauded by this individual, why don't you
consult with an attorney and take legal action against
them? That will be a whole lot more effective that passing
out slanderous fliers. People will just assume you're a
kook anyway and toss them away.
