In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, crabmeat, chopped scallions, and minced garlic. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Fill the Wontons
Take a wonton wrapper and place about 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center. Moisten the edges with water, fold the wrapper over to create a triangle, and press to seal. Make sure there are no air pockets.
