Ripple CTO warns community to be on the lookout for Coinbase's new phishing scam

The Ripple CTO has alerted the community to new emails used by scammers. The scam involves impersonating Coinbase USA to gain access to users' accounts. Schwartz shared an image of a scam email from a sender claiming to be a representative of Coinbase. The scammers are trying to grab users' attention by informing them that their account info needs to be reviewed to ensure smoother transactions with the exchange. Meanwhile, some investors confirmed receipt of the email. One user claimed his email was accompanied by a call from a Canadian line posing as a Coinbase support worker, but he confirmed he had not been duped.
