It has to be a troll. There is a very similar puzzle which indeed is a draw, but not only th position is not the same, the move order differ too.

I created an easy one. I don't know if it already existed. 

In this position, one of the two players asks for the draw. The other player does not accepts. However, the arbiter gives reason to the first player and the game is declared a draw. How was it possible?

threefold repetition I guess. Or 50 move rule, either is independently possible, and we have not enough info.

 

But in most actual tournament with anti agreed draw rules, both players would received 0 points.

Hi 4xel! Yes, my idea was the threefold repetition. I didn't know about the anti agreed draw rule :-)

Then also after the texts moves 1...Rxc3 2.Rxc3 Qb1 also wins because of for example 3.Rc1 Qxc1+ 4.Qxc1 Rb8 and 5...Rb1  And so on.

That's not really a rule of the game of chess technically, more like of a anti cheat rules.

This is from a game i played recently and there is only one move that wins for white in this position.
