Simplexautotrades surprised me again by asking for a $1,875 “compliance revalidation fee”

I honestly thought I was done with all the bureaucracy. I had submitted my documents, passed every check, and received a confirmation email stating that my withdrawal would be processed within 3–5 business days. But on day four, this new fee showed up. I asked them to explain where this came from, and they couldn’t provide a clear answer. They just said it was required for “account integrity confirmation.” What does that even mean? They wouldn’t deduct it from my balance either, which raised more red flags. The whole thing feels like a scam. They use professional language and an official-looking platform, but behind the scenes, it’s manipulation. I regret trusting Simplexautotrades and now believe this is a fake broker designed to block access to funds through fake charges.
