Title: Tokens transferred from My Coinbase account
Requested by @wdmoore01

I am very new to Crypto and My Coinbase account shows a transfer of 8111.00 stellar tokens to the above public address. I am not clear what happened, as I am still trying to figure out this Crypto Environment. So any help in clarifying what happened would be greatly appreciated and if I could get the tokens returned. Thanks and If this isn't the place to get the answer, perhaps you could give me a link, or a department to contact. Sincerely W D Moore

I see the Number above, is an account # in Stellar Expert, and I see a balance history showing the deposit of my 8111.0742887 Stellar Lumen tokens. I am not sure how they got transferred there, but if I could recover them to my Coinbase account, it would be greatly appreciated. I am a Crypto Newbie, (42 days now and trying to learn the best ways to function in here) Assistance would be greatly appreciated, or a referral to someone or a department that I could speak with regarding this issue. Thanks wd-moore@comcast.net My XLM Address in Coinbase is: GDIZ74OJNQLC625T3OUJAENNXKHIOQZTIPKSWPB6CH3DHONWAGRCWGWW and the XLM Memo is: 715186337

Hello @Wdmoore01,

First I need to tell you to be very careful about anyone contacting you claiming to be some kind of tech support. This is vary common scam. NEVER GIVE ANYONE YOUR PRIVATE KEY, EVER

One place I know you can safely ask questions or ask for help understanding things about crypto (with a focus on the Stellar blockchain) is a group that works together to expose scams on the Stellar Blockchain. The "White Hat Army" are found on telegram at https://t.me/whitehatarmy .

I have put together a checklist about things to review/research about any token project. It is shared here. "Things to Consider When Evaluating Token Projects" https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Vbo1GsQWSsTCeVw0nMLX6X7tPCufXMNRTmeUvQh7tmo/edit?usp=sharing

This a list I made on YouTube of good crypto educational videos. I have not edited this for a long while and know there are many other great informational bloggers. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNacpbcw2fHsllvRnw6ksNwAeHKkza4Uw

Always think critically and don't be lead down a rabbit hole of "special understandings"

Looking Towards The Future With You, Rob

Thanks Rob,

For your response and the insight and links you have shared with me.

It appears that my Coinbase exchange account was accessed and had hacked my email to confirm the transfers.

So I lost about 2500.00 dollars in tokens and locked down my Coinbase account and my email.

I didn’t respond to a scammer but apparently was hacked and surprised that the Coinbase security didn’t

protect my tokens. But I am a novice here and have been trying to assimilate the environment here to be able to

trade tokens and invest.
