I was told that I was going to receive a $7,000 grant, but in order to receive the money, I would have to give a charitable donation. So I was directed to a western union store to wire the money. I was told the money would be deposited into my account within 45 minutes of wiring the money. The money was never deposited into my account because the bank was apparently closed for the day. They called me this morning asking for a $430 security deposit that was going to be reimbursed to me, that's when I knew I had been scammed.
