Bank/Coinbase hacked

[weesie]

Hi,

Just a heads-up.Logged into my bank today to find I had been ripped off.

It posted as coinbase but with a slightly different description. "TRAV" was inserted into the middle of the "coinbase gbgb" which is not the usual address plusthe charges do not show in my coinbase history.

I tried to see my history at gdax.com, but have yet to find any history at all.3 charges totaling $100 plus fees...... Be checking your bank accounts!

Edit: CB is aware and are taking reports:https://np.reddit.com/r/CoinBase/comments/7xs1aq/update_on_multiple_charges/

They are aware of the problem, seems a lot of peeps got hit.

I got a case number and they are working to restore my funds.

I know one person got hit for $3500.00....... so my $100 doesn't look so bad.

I hate having to get a new card & registering it everywhere again. UGH!

yeah, new cards suck!

An update:

It has come to their attention that the problem lies with "VISA" and the account was not "Hacked"

They are working on refunds.
