Summary of ponzi schemes through liquidity mining pools. 
I.Transaction details : 1.On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX of XXXX were stolen-transferred, without my consent or authorisation from my US based Coinbase wallet to another another wallet address : XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX My Coinbase, Coinbase pro Coinbase wallet accounts are American based and connected to a XXXX XXXX.I purchased USDT through XXXX, Coinbase pro exchanges. 
II.Description of actions Leading to this event : I started researching Cryptocurrency Liquidity Mining pools sometimes in XXXX XXXX the middle of XXXX I was by told about USDT/ETH Liquidity Mining pool which I accessed through my Coinbase wallet.The name of the person who told me about the pool was XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX information about her is included in the end of this narrative.She insisted that the best way to join the XXXX Liquidity mining pool was through the Coinbase Wallet. 
Initially I was suspicious and called friends with financial background and their opinion was that if the pool is associated with my Coinbase Wallet it its most likely legitimate.I red the XXXX section available in the Coinbase wallet and also what is required to join the liquidity mining pool and the information was completely identical.I also learned that to participate in the XXXXXXXX XXXX process I do not need to move or pledge funds into the poll, all the funds - USDT will remain in my wallet during the liquidity mining process. 
When I was joining the pool I never received any message or warning from Coinbase /Coinbase Wallet , that trough joining the liquidity mining pool I actually give the pool uncontrolled access to the USDT in my wallet.Later on I learned that a lot of other wallets such as XXXX and others warn their customers about this very important detail.Also I was never presented with the pool rules, terms and conditions, but at the time that didnt raise a suspicion. Now I am certain that the pool in question is a fraud. 
I paid the pools joining fee ( around {$100.00} in EETH which I transferred to my wallet from my Coinbase Pro account. Later I purchased more USDT and trough Coinbase pro account which I transferred to my Coinbase wallet. 
Initially I was accessing the pool through my Coinbase wallet using the domain XXXX. Later on the domain was changed to XXXX. I was made aware about the domain change via email.

Because I did not have money in my XXXX XXXX  account to purchase more USDT and my XXXX bank ( XXXX ) does not support direct wires to cryptocurrency exchanges I contacted the customer service of XXXX through a life chat and was given the option to wire money to their XXXX bank account and they would deposit USDT enemy Coinbase wallet.

See attachment 5. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Communications with XXXX  life chat and emails available upon request ) I gave the customer service my wallet USDT deposit address. Before I shared the address I confirmed with a friend that this is a safe practice. 
After the first wire/deposit went through my confidence in the process increased and wired additional {$210.00} XXXX and again without any issues a total of 210 500.00 USDT were deposited in Coinbase wallet XXXX XX/XX/XXXX.

We will provide you with a new remittance account. Please provide your name, the wallet address transferred from USDT and your remittance voucher after remittance. 
... 
I questioned if this is correct place to wire the money and was reassured that is completely ok to do so. ( Communications available upon request ) This increased my suspicion and I decided not to wire money and do more investigation through friends who are in groups related to cryptocurrency. He contacted people and did some additional investigation and told me there is a high chance for fraud, because he was able to trace funds exiting the liquidity pool wallet and entering different wallets. 
In the meantime the customer service of the liquidity mining pool sensed sensed my hesitation and started to send me emails pressuring me to send more money which confirmed my fears.Please see attached : From : CC Address options XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX To : Star message D Address options XXXX XXXX Hide details Stored with zero-access encryption Stored with zero-access encryption Date : Friday, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX Inbox Inbox Size : XXXX KB XXXX embedded image Has 1 attachment Have you made the remittance, Sir?

XXXX KB 1 embedded image Download all XXXX XXXX ( XXXX KB ) First contact with Coinbase customer service : Based on the new information I became very concerned about the security of my wallet and contacted Coinbase Customer Service on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX AM XXXX XXXX XXXX and spoke with XXXX XXXX ( or XXXX ), XXXX XXXX was able to see my wallet activities.I informed her that I have serious concerns regarding my wallet security, because of the high probability that the liquidity mining pool I joined is a fraud, and my wallet could be somehow linked to the poolXXXX XXXX assured me in that the security of my wallet is not compromised because the 2 step verification process is intact and no-one can access my wallet without my permission.I specifically told her that joined the Liquidity pool trough my Coinbase wallet and inquired if the pool was now linked to my wallet and able to access my funds without my permission and again she assured me that this is not possible. I also told her that the pools bank was depositing funds in my wallet which she was also able to confirm.The conversation took 48 min and 21 seconds. Coinbase claims that their customer service calls are recorded and if thats the case the recording can confirm my statements here. 
Because of XXXX strong reassurance I did not create another wallet and did not transfer all my funds out of my current one which turned out to be a capital mistake. After my phone call with Coinbase I was able to convert mined Ethereum to USDT, but when I tried to transfer it back to my wallet the system did not let me do so. 
From close to XXXX mined USDT I was only able to transfer {$100.00} to my wallet which is XXXX USDT. See attached : https : XXXX XXXX. 
I tried to reach the customer service of the liquidity pool but at that point no-one responded. 
In the afternoon of the XXXX XXXX while I was flying From XXXX XXXX XXXX the following email was sent to me.Please see attached : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX Stored with zero-access encryption Inbox XX/XX/XXXX To : XXXX Show details XXXX  message Dear investor, because you participated in the smart contract activity and completed the wallet fund 780000USDT within seven days and got XXXX ETH XXXXewards, you twice required the system to delay the activity receiving time. After delaying the activity receiving time, you repeatedly incorrectly operated withdrawal requests on the page of XXXX liquidity mining system. The smart contract detects that you do not meet the activity reward criteria, so you now trigger the smart contract pledge activity, which will pledge all USDT in your wallet to XXXX liquidity mining to generate the maximum profit. Now you need to meet the next pledge standard activity reward. The standard fund of the activity should reach 1 million USDT and get 180 ETH awards. The pledge time of the activity is 7 days. Failure to complete the activity within seven days will result in a breach of contract XXXX :... 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXmbedded image Download all c be t h XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX KB ) There are big problems associated with this email : 1.The participation of the event described voluntary, so is any form of pledging of funds, if one does not reach the required amount no there is no reward- ( provided that the pool is legitimate.Now I know a lot more to connive me that it's a fraud ) 2.I was told that as long as the USDT stays in my wallet they do not need to be pledged.The only thing I did was that I converted mined ETH to USDT and tried to transfer it to my wallet which would increase the amount of the USDT ( Tether ) available to the pool, but their system didnt not let me do so. 
2.I never wanted to participate in the event described below- 1million USDT for 180 ETH, prior to this email, I didnt even know that such an event existed. 
In the afternoon of XX/XX/XXXX someone was able to get into my wallet and transfer all my USDT to different wallet address : XXXX. 
Please see transaction details in the beginning of this report. 
The 2 step Verification of the transaction was never activated, which means that whoever did this had opened the back door or was linked to my wallet, something XXXX XXXX assured me was impossible. Up to this day I do not know how this was achieved and hope that your experts can figure this out. My multiple conversations with Coinbase did not bring any explanation at allI.In fact Coinbase is still denying that this can happen.They also claimed that they never knew about existing fraudulent activity trough/or related to their wallet which now I know for a fact is a lie. 
The IP dress of XXXX is XXXX. 
Second Contact with Coinbase : As soon as I noticed that the funds were taken out of my wallet in the afternoon of XX/XX/XXXX I called Coinbase at XXXX XXXX XXXX Time and spoke with XXXX who claimed that he could not see any activity in my Coinbase wallet after XX/XX/XXXX which I knew was false because all recent activity in my wallet were confirmed during the phone call with XXXX XXXX at XXXX AM on XXXX the end of the phone call XXXX claimed that he is not a Coinbase wallet specialist and could not help me but refused to address the issue with his superiors despite my rigorous demands. He only opened a regular investigation. The call time was 1hr and 16 minutes ( screenshot available upon request ) I considered the call a complete waist of time and if anything was a delay of the investigation by Coinbase . 
Third contact with Coinbase : Around XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX Time on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I called Coinbase customer service again.The call was initiated from XXXX XXXX phone from the US and I was conferenced in and we spoke with XXXX XXXX. We refused to get off the phone before she consulted with her superiors and was able to initiate as per her words an escalated investigation. During the phone Call XXXX was able to see the notes from my first call and that I called with security concerns. Unfortunately, their examination was of no help to me.Couple off days later I received the following email : [ Reply ] Case # XXXX - Call for US Coinbase Support from XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX Coinbase Support XXXX to me Hello XXXX, Thanks for reaching out to Coinbase Support. If you did not authorize any outgoing transactions from your Coinbase Wallet, it means that your recovery phrase has been compromised.

Because your Coinbase Wallet is a user-controlled and non-custodial product, which means that only you have full control/access to your wallet ( including the recovery phrase ), we can not provide any further details about how it was compromised nor can we help recover these funds. 
Due to the irreversible nature of cryptocurrency protocols, transactions can neither be canceled or reversed once confirmed on the blockchain. If you still hold any funds, we recommend that you immediately send them to a secure address. You can create a new Coinbase Wallet and then transfer those funds to your new Wallet. Note that we can not generate a new key for your new Wallet. For more information, please visit the Coinbase Wallet FAQ page : https : //wallet.coinbase.com/faq/ If you have not already done so, its very important that you report this incident to law enforcement agencies in your jurisdiction as well as the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center ( IC3 ) : https : //www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx/ Coinbase is willing to offer full cooperation with all law enforcement investigations pertaining to your account 's compromise. Please dont hesitate to reach out. 
Kind regards, Coinbase Support Sun, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX PM ( 9 days ago ) Forth contact with Coinbase : On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX I called Coinbase at XXXX Eastern XXXX Time again and Spoke with XXXXAgain during the call I received Zero assistance, but well structured statements claiming Coinbase innocence.The call took 43 minutes and 45 seconds ( screenshot available upon request ). 
After the USDT was transferred to another wallet I could no longer log in through my Coinbase wallet in the liquidity mining pool with XXXX. Later on the connection was reestablished.I guess this was done on purpose to create confusion and give them time to transfer my funds to many different wallets as the XXXX later showed ( my interpretation ) I am sure that your review of the XXXX will provide a lot more accurate information. 
Contacts with other companies dealing with XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX ; XX/XX/XXXX I approach a company called XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX company dealing with cryptocurrency scams.Mr XXXX XXXX informed that there many cases very similar to mine involving Coinbase wallet, and that Coinbase is not doing anything to help their customers and avoids responsibility in 100 % of the cases.XXXX XXXX  send me email regarding his company credentials.Bellow is XXXX XXXX Contact info : Contact us : XXXX XXXX XXXX Email : XXXX Toll Free : XXXX Office : XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX IL EXT - XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX- XXXX XXXX also told me that to initiate the process I have to make Initial payment of {$30.00} XXXX, and sign the contract with them to pay them 10 % of the collected amount if they are successful.He also said that, the fact that I went through XXXX XXXX XXXX account increases my chances for collection.My research about the company so far is not encouraging and I have not engaged them as I write this summary. 
XXXX also joined a social group with the following domain : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX? XXXX & XXXX & XXXX In the group I saw many stories similar to mine involving USDT/ETH scams associated with the Coinbase wallet. 
In summary : my contacts with Coinbase Customer Service have brought me nothing but delay of my future actions. 
Since the XX/XX/XXXX I have been in touch with the customer service of the CB-ETH liquidity mining pool.They relentlessly attempted to make me send additional {$510.00} XXXX to complete the smart contact and get the pledged funds back to my wallet plus 180 ETH ( electronic copies available upon request ). 
My request to exit the pool and get my pledged funds back are denied.Initially the funds are supposed to be pledged for 3-6 months or until the mined amount of ETH reaches 180.Shortly after I received a message informing me that the funds will be pledged for 365 days.My question weather the smart contact will automatically be terminated after 365 days remained unanswered.Please see attached : [ 2 ] CB-ETH responded to your XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Address options LiveChat Notification XXXX XXXX Forwarded Stored with zero-access encryption Inbox XX/XX/XXXX To : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX message This message contains remote content.
