Type of a scam Government Grant

NOTE IM NOT POSITIVE IT IS A SCAM FOR SURE. here I’s what happend i was approached by email they seen my ad on craigslist an found it interesting and want to know more I explained they said they worked for a non profit and that she was gonna try an get me approved to apply for this grant. they claim to offer struggling individuals or buisness money to help them get back on there feet is how I understood it. I got interviewd over the phone, was asked questions about what services do I offer and how much do I charge and if it contributed to the community in any way…I answer an it does and the asked me to send them a more detail list and introduction about the buisnes s I wanted to start up as well as a detailed list of start up cost..I did. But only half [censored] because i figured it was a scam. When the guy wrote me back and asked me to be more conscience and specific and honest about the cost. I felt bad thinking they thought I was trying to hustle them so I did and it was detsil..they said there fet back with me and they did but a week or so later and told me my application has been approved an funding been released and will be wired into my account soon..I got a call 2 days later from the same guy that did the phone interview and he wanted to know if i banked an if my bank was capable of handling such a amount I said yes am he said he would get back to me and I’ve come to the conclusion I’m being scammed an worries about some illegal activity is going to be done through my account ..
