Actually he or the company does have access to it. But I also have other wallet ids linked and other wallets I use and 2fa security on log in so I’m safe
So are you saying the sender has the private key and there’s no need to activate money to be spendableon blockchain
I’m actually considering confronting him about this hmmm lol

Much of what you are saying isn't making sense. It is not clear how much of that is because you don't understand what you are trying to say, and how much of it is because the person you are transacting with is misleading you.
Lets start with some basics...
You have a blockchain.info wallet?
How did you get that wallet? Did you set it up yourself, or did someone else set it up for you?
Did the sender ask you to import anything into your blockchain.info wallet? Such as a private key or a bitcoin address?
What is the transactionID of the transaction where you "see the incoming transaction"?
You said? "he or the company does have access to it" What does that mean? Does the sender have the password for your blockchain.info wallet? Does the sender of the bitcoins have a private key or address that they gave you to access the bitcoins? What exactly does "he or the company" have access to?
It sounds likely that someone is attempting to scam you, but enough of what you are saying doesn't make sense that it is possible that you are simply misunderstanding (and mis-explaining) something.
Ok so he's a trader and works with a brokerage company, he has my info to get into my blockchain n I guess passed it on to the brokerage. They logged in and put the money in my blockchain somehow. When look at the transactions and the btc address it says watch only. He tells me I need to send up to 1 btc🤔🤦♂️ into this account from another wallet so that the transactions/money they put in can be activated/ retrieve the private key( so he says🤔)
The address where it was sent from is 3EKc1EHHRVJrwBGFgvxd7ZJrKxjTHZZFhV
I think we're all being trolled. What I've bolded above is the exact same text of the original post. See below...

Also, this OP goes by the name "Cryptoking" but clearly doesn't know the first thing about Bitcoin? This person should know the difference between a wallet with blockchain.info and THE blockchain. He keeps referring to "his blockchain".
Finally, the OP never said he gave the trader any money...so what's the problem?
There is never any need in bitcoin for someone to hold your private keys, nor is there ever a need to put money in to "activate an account". I am 99.9999999% sure this person is scamming you.
Except for when the "someone" is a bitcoin exchange. Coinbase holds your private keys, technically, so this particular point doesn't indicate a scam.
That said, the OP doesn't know nearly enough about Bitcoin to get involved with anyone.
