Fraudulent Check, Fraudulent Grant Rip-Off

I received a letter along with a check for $4,865.00 from this company stating that I had been awarded a $39,000.00 Home Improvement Grant. They instructed me to call to activate the check, and then to deposit the check into my checking account and to send back a money gram for $3,510.00 to pay necessary taxes and fees to a Kimberly Bryan in Brooklyn, N.Y. They advised that the balance of the grant monies of $35,850.00 would be sent by courier within 3-5 business days after receiving the money gram. The check was drawn on the First National Bank of Alaska. I deposited the check and waited for it to clear before sending the money gram. Upon having my bank check with First National Bank of Alaska, they advised that the check was fraudulent and would be returned. Had I sent them the money gram, I would have lost the $3,510.00. This is a fraud and a scam. Please let others know.
