Sounds like an old scam trick I have seen before. The user will pretend to send you the funds in the very exchange. If you try to withdraw, they will ask you to "verify the account" by first depositing your Bitcoin in the exchange. Once you deposit the BTC. It's gone.
Thanks for being Vigilant. Flagging the scammer

What happened: Fake exchange that requests verification and deposit before the withdrawal.

AlexyCrypto24 with date registration: Date Registered:   Today at 10:55:16 AM made his post looking for someone to help him withdraw his money from the exchange and claimed he his from Russia but it was all lies, be cautious of exchange like this.

Second flag: While the market is currently flat, the exchange coins are all up by %. Bitcoin current price at the time of writing is $38,800, but the exchange is showing $41,662.
