International money transfer Fraud or scam New York

Someone called my - grandmother ( - years old ) on the phone pretending to be me needing help with money to get bailed out of jail in - and -. This was clearly not true ( I 've never even been to - and - ) but she was scammed into sending $5800.00 through MoneyGram at Wal-Mart through multiple transfers. The person on the phone convinced her that they were me and told her not to tell anyone else. She was frightened and complied. After finding out what happened, I collected all receipts from her and would like to do something about this.
