This is almost guaranteed to be someone in a foreign county. I know a person that got taken on eBay for some Sugar Bowl tickets. The request was to wire money to Western Union. After the fact, I asked why would someone with a Great Britain eBay account have Sugar Bowl tickets?

From what I understand, once money is wired into the Western Union network, someone can pick it up anywhere with a basic form of ID as long as it is under $12,000. For example, they say they will pick the money up in New York, but they can go to a Western Union office in Abuja, Nigeria just as well. Unfortunately, that is what makes these scams work.

I would suggest forwarding the email to DogDetective.com because they probably have measures that can at least stop this particular email address from preying on other people with lost dogs. I bet that they have a rampant problem with this kind of activity going on. Because of the nature of the Internet, this kind of thing is impossible to police.

U.S. law enforcement doesn't investigate these things at all. They may take a report, but because it is mostly untraceable, they have better things to do.
