Hi,
$900 fee doesn't sound realistic.
And if there's a fee, the check you get is after the fee paid and you get the balance .
It's a scam .

I received an email claiming our rescue had been awarded over three thousand dollars in grant money. There were administrative and processing fees of around $900 that needed to be paid. They said they would send a check for the entire amount and that we were to send a check for the administrative fees after we had received the grant.
Anyone ever received an email like this? I'm pretty sure it is a scam.
