94 YO Grandmother was told she won millions of dollars, she just had to send a check.

My grandmother got a call from someone saying that she had won millions of dollars and all she needed to do was send a check for $4500 to an address in Ohio. The thing I’m confused by is that this scammer asked her to send a check to a specific name and to a personal address. I did a short search and found the address is in fact, a residential address, and someone by that name lives there. Is it common for scammers to have their victims send checks made out to their real names and sent to their real address?
