Advice given to me by a friend who is a copper when we had some neighbours who we suspected were involved with drugs, was to ring Crimestoppers. They file the report in such a way that it will be followed through. It's too easy for your local cop shop to file a report in the drawer. She also said that "intelligent people" who think something sounds/looks fishy, are usually right. We were concerned about "retaliation", and her advice was these guys are more paranoid about their mates/competitors dobbing them. You can make the report to Crimestoppers anonymously or wait for a dob-in-a-druggie campaign by the police.
You'd have to wonder about this guy's logic anyway - why come out of the bush, shine a torch in your face and ask if you're a copper, if he were up to no good?
