I contacted the FBI when I was dealing with my scammer. They cared very much
but admitted that they get so many of these that they really cannot follow
up unless you have actually beens cammed of money. The agent I spoke with
wasn'y happy about that fact but it was a simple issue of time and man power
vs. the amount of complaints. They did however ask me to report all the
details to www.ic3.gov - this is their internet crimes division.
