Holy shit.
I just got attacked with one of the most complex scams in #crypto that I have seen to date.
Please read if you use @coinbase.
This just happened 15 minutes ago.
THIS IS A WARNING FOR ALL COINBASE USERS!
There has been some sort of a data breach.
First, I received a text message saying that my @coinbase 2FA was changed.
I then received three calls from a @coinbase "customer support" that was from a San Fransisco number asking if I was traveling outside of the US and if I requested an email change and a 2FA change. (NOTE: I tried to record this, but couldn't find my wife's phone before they hung up)
I said no to traveling and they said that they cancelled the 2FA and email change request and sent a text to verify it was cancelled.
They then sent me to the 'security' team to verify my account to avoid a 48 hour suspension.
They had my name, my email and my location and sent a 'verification code' email from [email protected] to my personal email.
I told them that I didn't need their assistance and I changed the password already and he told me that it wouldn't work to verify the account and that they would be locking it down for 7 days due to a lack of verification unless I provided the code.
He then got angry and hung up the phone on me after I told him that I wouldn't provide the code.
After the first text, I immediately logged into my #coinbase and changed the password and 2FA and caught on that it was a scam almost immediately, but I doubt that 98-99% of people that get this would realize it and would have unlocked their #coinbase accounts.
For those unaware, the code they sent was my actual 2FA, but they sent it from their own email and were logging into my account to drain it while we were on the phone.
Attached are the texts, phone calls and email from the scammers.
Like and retweet to spread awareness please. Thanks.

Hey @brian_armstrong , I listened to the spaces you did. It was great. I noticed though that the reach was very small (less than 25000) .
Why don’t you join a spaces with @MarioNawfal , @scottmelker and Myself.
We have way bigger reach for such an important message….
CENTRAL BANK DIGITAL CONTROL != CBDC
Fednow is central bank digital control, even if it's not technically central bank digital currency.
I strive to be precise. So, let me make some important clarifications about FedNow, in response to fair points from @jp_koning and @CaitlinLong_.
First: FedNow is highly centralizing. It's an instant payment system where every payment goes through a Fed-controlled server and must "comply with applicable controls"[1].
And the roadmap[2] is to support not just p2p payments but also "consumer-to-government" and "government-to-consumer", which means automatic debiting from your account and automatic stimulus. In other words, even more direct government control over your bank account.
The same Fed that sent interest rates to zero and then the moon, the same Fed that killed five of its own banks[3] and blamed their deaths on everything other than its own policies — in July that Fed will soon have the visibility and power to monkey with your bank account directly to freeze or drain your funds at will with "applicable controls" and "consumer to government" payments, rather than being impeded by the current antiquated banking tech stack.
But yes, FedNow isn't technically a central bank digital currency (CBDC). There isn't a blockchain or equivalent where you can see the on-chain flow of every digital dollar.
However, it is what people *fear* when they talk about a CBDC. It's central bank digital control, even if it's not central bank digital currency. And it's a major step towards rolling out a full CBDC.
So I agree that the distinction between FedNow and a CBDC is important from a technical standpoint, but not from a civil liberties standpoint.
I think of FedNow as a little bit like a virus that has evolved to evade recognition by changing its sequence without really changing its function. People are immunized against the term "central bank digital currency", but not all forms of increased "central bank digital control", and FedNow is certainly the latter.
The fundamental question is whether FedNow increases the Fed's control as a system administrator over the lives of individuals. And the answer is that unfortunately it does. So FedNow is increased central bank digital control, even if it's not technically a CBDC.
So, any statute that bans CBDCs should also ban central bank digital control in the form of FedNow.
