Welcome to the forum.
If you did not sign anything, then you have not been scammed. You can look up your grandfather’s name on www.texasfile.com and see if anything shows up. You could also check the tax rolls in the counties where he went hunting to see if he owes property tax on any royalties. If you do find something, then get legal help to make sure that you are protected properly and can claim any royalties. Also check the unclaimed funds at the Texas Treasurers office and your grandfather’s state if different than Texas. She may only been fishing or had an incorrect name. Also check your mother’s name.
