Prime Fx Markets is asking for an 'account validation fee' before releasing my funds.

I was shocked when Prime Fx Markets told me that before I can Amount of the Largest TR Foreign Exchange Fraud Case in Guangxiwithdraw my funds, I need to pay a $2,000 “account validation fee” to verify my details. I have already completed the KYC (Know Your Customer) process and submitted all necessary documentation when I signed up. Now they’re saying that there’s some issue with the verification process and I need to pay this extra fee. I’ve never heard of such a charge before, and it seems like an attempt to make me pay more money just to access what is rightfully mine. Has anyone else been asked for an “account validation fee”? What are the next steps I should take?
