Sorry but it is the employer who has you over a barrel not the other way around. They clearly have managed to manipulate you into working for free for a long time, and are continuing to say whatever it takes to squeeze even more work out of you for free. The rule is to never ever let a company owe you more than a month of work, and stop delivering the moment they don’t pay. My advise would be to say to them: pay me what you owe and I will deliver. Otherwise forget it. The claims made by the company are obviously BS. Unless they can provide evidence that they have (say) a signed contract with a customer worth $ millions.
