Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order

They sent me a text message saying this is regarding the shopper evaluation I had signed up for online. Your information has been received for Shopping Task payment /memo will be delivered via USPS. I got the letter in the mail the following Monday with instructions on what to do the check was for 1,950 and it was from Utah Community Credit Union I was to deposit the check in my account then take out 1,600 and do two transactions one was Wal-mart to Wal-mart and the other was a moneygram then I was to keep 300 for myself and 50 to pay for the transfers and gas. Once my bank didn’t approve it I text him telling him I know he’s a fraud and he didn’t respond. So now I’m in the negative with my bank.
