I received this vague email last week, like many other users. The email comes from [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) . The email states I can use my account for the next month, but after that, it will be temporarily restricted from bringing in funds or trading. This is very vague because:
- No reason or explanation is given for this future temporarily restriction. I have been using coinbase for years without problems and my account is fully verified.
- It doesn't state whether this temporarily restriction will apply to trading on Coinbase Pro as well.
- It doesn't state the length of the temporarily restriction.
- Why will my account be restricted one month from now and not immediately? This doesn't make sense.
- All the above indicate that this may be a phishing attempt and that this is just the first "prepping" email as part of a social engineering attempt.
This is last week's thread where someone mentioned that this may be a phishing email/attempt.
/u/coinbasesupport can you please look into this and expedite the case if possible? I am not worried about the account review, I am worried about this being a phishing attempt, but especially worried about the upcoming unclear temporarily trading restrictions. I don't want my financial future to be at Coinbase's mercy during volatile periods.
Tagging /u/CoinbaseSecurity because of phishing concerns.
