I don't know about that specifically. I have never seen it, but I don't use exchanges anymore. It certainly wouldn't surprise me.

This recently happened to me in the UAE recently, I started a withdrawal and then they said it wouldn't be processed immediately as it had to go through some check.
Obviously the governments are converging to similar approaches on how to surveil Bitcoiners. I am decided to never buy Bitcoin from an exchange again, now my Bitcoin will either come from mining, being part of the ecosystem, and p2p.
