Issue: Fraud or scam — 
Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I received a notification/email from XXXX XXXX XXXX that my account was being attempted to be hacked. I was very cautious. I wasn't sure if it was correct or not. I reached out to coinbase and they confirmed that they do send emails from the email address " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' Turned out that the email was a fraud email. Their email moniker had been spoofed. When I began an email thread with their support team, it too has the email moniker " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' So there is essentially no way for the consumer to know if what's being asked of them is fraud. When I brought that up to them, they give you a generic unhelpful uncaring response. 

Their email has been spoofed and they do nothing about it. Now I am out approx. {$2000.00} that has been taken from me. I have screenshots of the hacking email that shows it's from " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' along with screenshots of the legitimate support chat which is also from " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' Please help me get my money back. This is a electronic transfer of funds so am I not protected by Regulation E? Coinbase has left me in the lurch and their support is refusing to take ownership. 

If you look online there are many other cases describing the same issue. Coinbase is allowing their support email to be spoofed and doing nothing about it. Their customers are open to endless fraud loss and heartache.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the removal of several unauthorized accounts and inquiries from my credit report. These accounts and inquiries are not associated with me, and I did not authorize their inclusion on my report. The presence of these inaccuracies is the result of a data breach that has adversely affected my credit standing, leading to a significant drop in my FICO score. 

Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I identified multiple accounts and inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize. These inaccuracies have led to negative remarks on my credit report, which are unjustly damaging my credit score and financial reputation. 

The inclusion of these unauthorized accounts and inquiries has caused considerable stress and concern regarding my financial well-being. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and activities. Therefore, I request an immediate investigation into these inaccuracies and the prompt removal of all unauthorized accounts and inquiries.
