Other than not reply to a scam letter, what do we do? I saw the address in the UK for the scammer. Is there some sort of cyber police or anyone I should alert? I try to be a good netizen.
I usually forward such messages on to gmail, but is there anything else?
Is this a scam?

I just came across this article and thought of this group. It suggest using Google's reverse photo search. Amazing times, for sure.

For Firefox users, there's a plugin for this. Simply search the add ons for "reverse image" and you can add right click context search option for images. Good for snooping in the competition too.
