My friends' money is stuck at coinbase

[pornluver]

He bought bitcoin at coinbase using US VPN.

He then send an additional money to coinbase

This time he turn off the VPN.

Coinbase detects indonesian IP and suspend his account.

What should he do>?

Come clean?

The thing is he just deposit $5k money there.

And he lost his original bitcoin too. At lease he should be able to get it back.

My friend's money is stuck at coinbase why stopping who knows how to keep helping you if I'm going to find that someone who knows how to make may that with those of you friend's  will ask you questions to fix the problem...

probably because it is too trusting and less cautious

$ 5k is a pretty high amount, I guess Bitcoin has deposited with your friend U.States Ip. In this case, the account is locked, but it is very meaningless. When you authenticate, the account needs to be reopened, annoying this situation.

Better just come clean. It woukld not help to lie about it, since for sure they will ask for identification.

In this case you should for help in their support team im sure they have it and could help you regain your money and your account.  Just tell them in detail what happened and if ask you identification just comply because $5k usd would surely be a waste.  Just go to their help and assistance button and contact them.

Thats against Coinbase's terms of service and your friend broke it lol. Sorry, but tell your friend that Coinbase has the right to take his money away, never to return it ever again. Forever!

That also serves him right for breaking the rules. Sorry again if that sounds harsh, but your friend should learn his lesson.

I would. Just tell them why the confusion and maybe just maybe they would hand it over 😂

If coinbase doesn't return the BTC or allow access to it because of their policy the funds go into limbo. Anything that happens from there is open season.

I agree best to just come clean and tell the true story to Coinbase help. They will probably send you your btc or cash.  That is the right thing to do.

The only reason they wouldn't is if they want to set an example so that others don't try to go around their IP address rules.
