Type of a scam Government Grant

Person calling themselves Bob Wyatt called from number above. Said that I had been approved for a $5,000 + government Grant. Then proceeded to tell me that I was chosen by the Grant’s Dept to receive over $5,000 dollars in Grant to use for business, education, or personal. Said if I had a credit card or a ONE Vanilla Prepaid or a Go Bank card with at least $4.00 on it and activated, that the Bank of America would deposit the $5000 plus dollars into it within 6 hours. I said for him to call me at 6 pm tomorrow after he said that it couldn’t be done by mailing. I didn’t give out any info besides that he already had ie; my Gmail address, home address and telephone number. Certainly sounded fishy to me or an elaborate scam.
