They listed on craigslist. a 2000 dollar laptop for $520, who can resist. Emails were sent claiming to now be in the UK and using TNT to send it, Fair enough, all the contact info is from twodaytnt.com
http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/results.jsp?domain=twodaytnt.com
Called TNT, this site does NOT belong to them in any way,.
The tracking number they gave me does not exist, AND they instructed me to wire transfer them money via western union on the premise they hold the item and the money and release the money after I receive my merchandise.
I have the emails from this fake website/company.
So who do I turn in to for international trade scam?

I did not purchase the item, I just want authorities to be aware so that they don't manage to fool others.

Don't waste your time with it. There is nothing you can do because you are a foreigner to that country. Just SPAM the email and get on with your life.

Your first clue that it was a scam should have been that the laptop was being offered at a price that didn't make sense. Sorry, you were scammed - there's really noplace to report it that can do anything about it. Scammers are really good at hiding - and if you can't find them, you can't get your money back.

Probably the FTC. Go to their web site.
Of course, if you wire transfer these jokers the money that's the last you'll see of it.
