Thats kinda messed up dont you think, they could have gave you something for being a customer.  But anyway yeah april fools was thinking about doing something like that but actually giving bitcoins away.

[xb0x]

[franky1]

don't click links in emails. just laugh at the joke, as the true fool is the person that hands over login details to a phishing site

[Raxe.io]

Yes these are phishing malware emails, do not even get involved.

[RodeoX]

Are you saying i shouldn't have paid that? ...Uh oh.

[flounderella]

Have you seen this?

It's looks like coinbase emails and user names were leaked via a phishing attack that was pointed out by a researcher to coinbase a month ago and repeatedly ignored by coinbase until now?

Happy April fool everyone!

That's strange...because I woke up today, checked my coinbase account and it has 732,342 Bitcoins in it, I then called my job, said "Fuck you guys, I quit", went back to sleep and woke up only to reply here.

Good day, good day.

Cool story, bro

[Don007]

I heard many people who received that message.

Unfortunately I think there might be some people dumb enough to sign in and let their password stolen.

Coinbase has a PR problem

Coinbase has a PR problem

this isn't an April fools joke.  They had been warned about a security vulnerability multiple times by the same guy and refused to act... http://blog.shubh.am/full-disclosure-coinbase-security/

Coinbase seems to feel it's a "feature".

Coinbase seems to feel it's a "feature".   

This "feature" is going to cause some serious concerns quickly if it isn't removed.  Just came across this on Twitter today (partial list of Coinbase users and email addresses) http://pastebin.com/RzWipJFb

My email address is public and I didn't get any of these requests or emails..
I'm not sure this is really that big of a deal; it might be spearheaded by a competitor to Coinbase.
