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.
