To report a fraud, call Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040. I actually called them and was able to speak with the officer .
The online report of the romance scam starts here:

Confronting the scammer is WRONG!!! DON'T enlighten criminals with your wisdom. REPORT & BLOCK.
PHOTO VICTIM - "Do not confront the owner of the pictures, as they are victims themselves! You will only serve to further the terror and harm !" Silence Is Golden!!! I speak Polish.

What did they tell you?
I made a report online for being stolen US$13K, the scammer's collecting point was in London for MoneyGram.
(Have not heard from them, not that I was expecting to)
