I received a call stating I were selected for government grant

Wanted $250.00 to disburse $8500.00 govt. grant. This is a scam.  No one can legally or legitimately charge you to disburse govt. Funds.  Stop this scam!

>> Stop this scam  <<

Care to suggest how we can do that?

this has to be a scam

Received a call today that I am to receive $8,500 in a government grant.  However, they are unable to process a check, I have to go to Walmart, Western Union, etc. to pick up the funds
