Coinbase assisted Brooklyn prosecutors in cracking a fraud case involving approximately $16 million.
According to Odaily Odaily, Coinbase has announced that it is collaborating with the U.S. District Attorney's Office in Brooklyn, New York, to assist in the investigation of a long-running impersonation scam targeting platform users and to support victims in recovering their funds. According to the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office, a Brooklyn man has been charged with impersonating Coinbase customer service for an extended period, using social engineering to trick users into believing their accounts had been compromised and requesting them to transfer funds to a "secure wallet," which he then used to steal the money. The case involves approximately 100 victims and nearly $16 million, of which over $600,000 has been recovered. Coinbase stated that such scams do not stem from platform security vulnerabilities, but rather from social engineering attacks that exploit users' trust and sense of urgency. Common tactics include identity theft, impersonating customer service, and creating panic about account risks. The company stated that it has cooperated with law enforcement agencies in completing multiple investigations, including identifying suspects, assisting victims in notifying them, providing data support for legitimate requests, and tracing on-chain funds. It also emphasized that blockchain traceability helps law enforcement track the flow of funds. Coinbase also reminds users that the platform will not ask them to transfer funds to a "secure wallet," nor will it request 2FA verification codes, seed phrase, or password reset links. It also advises users to contact customer service only through official in-app channels. Coinbase will continue to strengthen its anti-fraud mechanisms, user education, and cooperation with law enforcement to address increasingly sophisticated crypto asset fraud.
Coinbase CLO: Former U.S. Deputy Attorney General submits "masterpiece" supporting documentation in Kalshi lawsuit
Odaily Odaily reports that Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal stated that Prelogar, former U.S. Deputy Attorney General representing the Coalition for Prediction Markets, has submitted an amicus brief in support of Kalshi to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, calling it a "masterpiece." Paul Grewal points out that the document not only outlines the historical context of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's exclusive regulatory authority over prediction markets but also presents three key arguments: 1. Prediction markets can uniquely aggregate market information and transform it into simple price signals, which are then aggregated by market participants. 2. Prediction market users trade based on prices that market participants are willing to accept. They cannot control contract prices and bear a legal obligation to provide users with fair access to the contract. 3. The laws of various states in the United States are not suitable for regulating prediction markets because their core objectives are not to maintain a fair market, price discovery, information aggregation, risk hedging, or prevent market manipulation.
