Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service

On XXXX Coinbase violated our User Agreement and Terms of Service as well as Regulation E, KYC, the Bank Secrecy Act, and Title III of the Patriot Act by allowing a XXXX XXXX bank account, which is not in my name, to be added to my Coinbase account, and then on the same day, allowed unauthorized transactions of {$51000.00} USD to be withdrawn from my Coinbase account and transferred to the checking account at XXXX XXXX. 

My accounts, passwords, 2-step verification codes, and networks are secure. I do not use unsecured networks or public computers. I adhere to all the terms of the Coinbase User Agreement. 

Total Loss : {$51000.00} USD ( Unauthorized Withdrawals : {$51000.00} USD + Fees for Unauthorized Transactions : {$980.00} USD ) Coinbase is in explicit violation of my User Agreement, their Terms and Conditions, and has violated my consumer rights. 

Coinbase did not notify me of any suspicious activity, or that a bank account that is not in my name was added to my account, which violates the terms and agreements. 

Coinbase should have notified XXXX immediately about the fraudulent activity. They did not. They still have not. 

Coinbase has not issued a Hold Harmless Agreement letter to the receiving bank, XXXX XXXX, to reclaim the funds. 

Coinbase has not issued provisional credit to my account while they conduct the investigation. 

Coinbase will not give me the full checking account number of the XXXX XXXX account that was added to my Coinbase account. FBI and XXXX and Police cant issue a XXXX to freeze the money or investigate without it. Coinbase is impeding the investigation. 

Coinbase will not give me the exact date and time stamps ( with timezone ) of when the IP addresses that were used to access my account were used to interact with the XXXX account, which has been requested by the FBI, which is impeding and obstructing the investigation. 

As of XXXX, Coinbase is no longer answering my phone calls. Until today, my call would be answered by a customer service representative. Now my calls only go into an automated system and there is no option to connect to a representative, even when selecting the security and fraud options. 

Coinbase continues to be unhelpful, and is repeatedly sending me copy / paste, stock responses stating that they are not responsible. 

On XXXX I was on with them for an hour and a half to try to regain access to my account. At the end of the call, before the issue was resolved, they hung up on me. I was being courteous, gracious, patient, and appreciative.
