USDTFX withdrawal issues

I have requested withdrawal money as it was deposited and neglect to process them. I got investing in this broker thru a lady that is dedicated to the forex XAUUSD trading, now it looks like is a scam or trap and I cannot take out my money. After several requests, they said the money was sent to HSBC and are asking me to pay 10% tax over the money (including the money I deposited), but they do not clarify if the fee is to the government, HSBC, or themselves. Please help me to investigate and if possible force them to give me the money.

Is Richmond Super a scam?

I have recently invested a large sum of money with this company that offer several different services, including Forex Trading and arbitrage trading. I am now concerned that I can't find them as a regulated broker, but they are not on your avoid list. They are based in London, according to several online reviews. There are many favourable personal reviews but there are also others saying "stay clear, they are a scam." It worries me that there are such comments, seeing I have a rather large sum of money in an account on their site. Can you investigate and tell me whether I have made a grave error in trusting the accounts manager in investing funds. If they are a scam, they have a very top notch website, and personel that are very skilled in their performance. If they are not legit, warnings should be sent to all regulating authorities. Thank you for your assistance.
