Type of a scam Government Grant

Appeared my aunt reached out to know how I have been saying shes been trying to reach me. Wondering if I heard about her great news. Said the FDGRG set up by FB founders to help old, retired, disabled, widowed, sick, & a selet few citizens that qualify in society. Said she got $50,000 delivered & she didn’t have to pay it back. Contacted the Attorney in-charge on his FB page and he helped her out. She would love for me to apply and can she send me the info? I said yes I’ll do it now. Clicked the link which took me to a FB page for Tom Charles Sr. Says he works at Federal government grant, an attorney, studied at San Francisco State Univ. All complete w distinguished photo! He picked up immediately giving creditials and the grant is to help folks to get out of debt, pay for kids college, etc. Had quite a long list for the grant $ to help. When I told I want to apply he said verification team said I am still eligible. Need to fill out delivery form so they can locate me when delivering the $. Wanted full name, address, date of birth, email, and occupation. I filled some correct and some not as I do not share ALL my personal info. Do I want $ by cash or check? My app was forwarded to the delivery Dept. After due processing by admin Dept it shows I’m still eligible and will be delivered w in next 24 hours! Next I am to choose the amount of $$ I want! And I am to pay for the shipping and clearance fee….They will make every effort to ship my order as soon as possible. Next was the option to choose the amount. The range was $50,000 up to 1million! With the fees ranging from $127.00 to $15,000 for the million. He asked if I have the money now. I asked why?? Said he could send me the ups info to put it on my card. Told him I only use cash. Well Walmart has money grams that would accept my cash. Told him I just dont have it. When can I get back to him when I do? I said every effort to send me money is not comforting to me. And why send money to get money?

that’s when I disconnected and blocked this fake. Shortly after that he started sending text through my phone # asking why I blocked him on FB. Said I dont believe him. He said its real and legit. (The words were not in correct order for English). I told him his words and language are not even correct. I said he hacked my relatives messenger! He offered ups cashier info then said "what you mean by hacked? Let you know we are not here for any kind of game’s or play." I said no one should send money to get money. He told me to get back to him when I’m ready to claim my package. Told him to take the $127.00 out of the 50grand and send me the rest. Then he said "It can never be done like that,You are to make the clearance fee so that we can locate your destination when bringing your money. We are not here to play games or scam anyone. You are to make the payment and your delivery will be made up to you asap.

That’s when I disconnected. Since then more text have come asking if I’m there.

And still using my aunts account in Messenger we have gotten heated conversations.

My last message to this person was "It will all come back around to you. You can actually live with yourself scamming people? How can you take their money knowing they think you are the person who’s account you’ve hacked? You come through on my aunts account. What if you got scammed? How would you feel? Everything from sick, cause they gave a low life their money, to embarrased, cause a low life got their money. And then stupid because they believe there are good people then a low life sneaks and again reminds them how low some people are for absolutely no reason. Get a job low life! Earn your own *** money. I hope you puke at night and cant sleep cause of what you do to people. SICKENING! You got kids? Wait till they’re scammed and see how you feel. you’re a creep!" that’s it, no more!!

Then I searched how to report and found this site.
