VerifiedHi! My name is***** a solicitor in Australia, and I’m happy to help you.
Concerning the $4000 you have one, if they are an offshore company that is not in Australia, it might be difficult to get your winnings. If they are based in Australia this organisation, you would be able to raise a claim under the Australian consumer law. If they're asking you for more money, you should not give them any more money until they pay you your $4000.
If they are in Australia, you could have a lawyers letter written to them addressing the issue and also noting that they need to comply with the Australian consumer law.
