Type of a scam Government Grant

On November 26, 2020 at 9:41 AM I received a text msg stating that they were with the National Science Foundation and they were going to send me $150,000 because I qualified and I was disabled; it was a grant money. Lisa Tasakinskas an agent w/NSF and she would make arrangements to send me the grant money. I sent a total of $15,000 (which I borrowed from my neighbors); the first $5,000 was sent on November 30, 2010; the 2nd was $10,000 on December 3, 2020. I was to wrap the money up and send it thru the mail. Address was 497 Ocean Blvd Apt 3F, Hampton, NH 03842. On December 4, 2020 I texted to see if she received the money and she did. She also said I would receive the money via FedEx on December 5th but I did not get it. Then she said that FedEx had a bad accident and I would have to pay the cost of another delivery which would be $30,000; I felt this did not feel right. Then I called friend and she said that it was scam that she did not receive any money from NSF. Originally, that was what NSF related to me and that was the reason I fell for the scam. I'll also call the FTC at 877-382-4357 to report the scam and give them the address where the money was sent & hopefully they'll be able to get my money back.
