a friend sent me $600 as a purchase/service... then I cancelled it and the person resent me the $600 as friend/family.
That went through fine.
I went to instant-withdraw it and it flagged the transfer, asked me to confirm my ID in the app... but then didn't move towards the next step in that process.
Ive received and transferred money this way about 5-6 times before in the past month or two.
Now I can't confirm ID, I can't cancel the transfer, I can't do anything.... what happened?

Your transfer for $600.00 USD which you began on March 20, 2022 has been delayed. To provide one of the safest online payment services, our internal security system reviews every transaction before it's released. This type of review can happen for various reasons. For example, you may have received a higher-than-usual amount of money into your account, you may be logging in from an insecure network, or you may have made changes to your account settings recently.
You won't be charged the instant transfer fee if one was applied to this transaction. Once 24-72 hours have passed, your transfer should be processed normally and you will receive the money in your CARD within 30 minutes.
