investmentco is now claiming that I need to pay a $500 processing fee

This is mt4 softwarecompletely unexpected and feels like a trap. I have complied with every procedure they asked for and was told everything looked good. They even approved my withdrawal—then added this so-called final step. I sent multiple emails asking for clarification and got nothing but evasive answers. They wouldn’t confirm what the fee was for, who imposes it, or why it wasn’t disclosed before. This feels like a classic scam strategy—lure you in, then hold your money hostage until you pay more. It’s clear investmentco is using fake fees to delay withdrawals and trick people into paying more. This is not a legitimate practice—it’s manipulation and exploitation. I strongly urge others to avoid this platform at all costs. I will be reporting this to consumer protection agencies immediately.
