I think he's saying that this person should know better? Person could lose his CC?
I wouldn't sick the ATF on my worst enemy.
I do not see the illegality here. You are alluding to several shady things without giving us the whole story. However, the specific question of: man asks son from another state to buy a gun and bring to said other state to give to the dad is not an illegal transfer of a gun across state lines. Is there a 4473 involved on the sons end? I could see a problem in that case. Is the purchase an effort to conceal the true recipient of the firearm? I could see a problem in that case as well.
Now, since thats out of the way. Whats the rest of the story?

It is also a straw purchase if the buyer is not the actual buyer of the firearm. There is no requirement for either party to be a prohibited person.
Dad: "Hey son, Here's $500, go buy me XXX" = Straw Purchase regardless if dad is prohibited or not.
You sound like that kid on the playground that tattles on everyone.
If you are genuinely concerned about the threat turning into something real I would call.
If you just want to tell I would stay out of it. I mean really who "wants" to talk to the ATF.
