This is common for a scam, yes.
I’d mute and not respond to any messages, but would not block the messages. This logs the messages.
I’d not move or touch or refund the money, either.
See section 5 (Customer Service) here, and contact Green Dot, and explain the situation:

To avoid future “fun”, I’d disable automatic payment acceptance; select manual only.
