coinex-change.com scam?

Hi.  Is it some new type of fraud, or i'm just new to it?

Some guy from Discord typed me to help to withdraw his 0.67BTC (so my reward would be 0.1BTc) cuz he lost his phone with 2FA authentication. Legend which already sounds like a 100% fraud.

Ok, well, "let's" - i told.  (i like funny entertainment)
He asked me to create an acc on coinex-chage.com  and send my BTC deposit address to him. i've done it.

  on coinmarketcap.com  there is no information about coinex-change.com

And f yes: - he transferred 0.67 BTC to "my" address so i can see them ob balance, but they are not deposited, they are transferred inside the platform ,  and i cant withdraw them cuz i'm a new user (!). And it's told that i got to mandatory deposit 0.005 BTC to prove that i'm not a robot and be less "unknow" person to them. (see pics below)
Also - on my e-mail there were no messages sent about my account creation.

Guy sent me printscreens with his withdrawals, and tx hashes for the last 2 of them... tx's are on btc blockchain and are legit.

Ofc i don't want to sent 0,005 BTC to this scam to check whether i'm able to withdraw or not.

But i'm interested - is it an old type of scam or some of you already encountered with this one (i mean the very site: coin-exchange.com) ?  Please write if u have an experience in such stuff, and your opinion about all this if you want.

Popular Tactics used by the investment scammers already seen on "discussion place":


1. Stopping you pulling out of the deal - If you try to pull out of the deal, scammers may try to swap your current investment for another one or convince you that your investment will increase in value soon.



2. Threatening legal action - Scammers may threaten you with prosecution or hefty fees to keep you from pulling out of the deal.

So did Yobit actually behave that way?
