Can someone sue you for defamation because of anonymous call?

In the US, anyone can sue anyone for anything. The question is not whether you can sue, but whether you can win.To win a case for defamation, the Plaintiff would have to meet all requirements under the state's definition of defamation (usually that defendant tarnished plaintiff's character, that such tarnish caused financial harm to plaintiff, etc.) If the call meets those requirements, the plaintiff may be able to win.Another View: Is this a trick question?
