Scammer

This may be a stupid question but I have looked around and not found the answer yet. A person contacted me on Yahoo today asking me to cash a check for them and then send them the cash to South Africa. It sounded so much like a scam. I could have just cut them off to begin with but I was curious to see how far he would take his explanation. He never answered any of my questions satisfactorily. Which I had expected. My question is this. Is there a way to report this person at least to Yahoo?? I know Yahoo is quite annonymous and so tracing them would be nearly impossible. Yet there's always that possibility that he could be at least slowed down from continuing this scam. Would it be worth it even. I'm not sure if I can include the nickname here but I'm tempted to. If it's ok please let me know. I'd love to give him a hard time. He got cranky and defensive when I started asking pointed questions. Any comments?
