Yes, you can do something. NEVER EVER pay for any awards, grants, prizes, cash distributions, etc. Legitimate grants, sweepstakes, lotteries, awards etc. NEVER ever ask for fee. (The fees are withhold from the amount you get.)

to get money? These types of scams are so prevalent in our society today that ANY offer that seems too good to be true usually is, and needs to be checked out! Make sure that you file a complaint with your local sherriff's dept, and anyone else that will listen. Let your bank know of a scam (to help others avoid falling into the same trap). Chances are good that your money is gone, but hopefully it's a lesson learned so that you don't get scammed again.
