When I first got into bitcoin coinbase was the one wallet I found that seemed trusted and reliable. Everything is working out great until about eight months ago I got contacted by them saying they no longer allow US customers and that i needed to withdraw my btc. I did so. My issue is, i have a local friend who has a coinbase account and he has never heard of this or been contacted by coinbase. Was wondering if any americans had the same experience?
It may be just a select few states that are not able to use Coinbase anymore but you are definitely able to still use Coinbase if you are in the majority of US states. I've not received any emails from them personally.
I don't think that anyone else have received the same email you received either.
Is it possible that you may have received a phishing email?
I think that this might make the most sense. The friend i spoke of has his account made in a different state. I will contact coinbase again to see if i can get a proper response. Like i said this was a little while ago, i hadnt really had the time to get it sorted out.
As far as it being a phishing email, im pretty certain it wasnt that. I had 2fa and the email said my account wouldnt close until i got my funds out.
I mainly used my coinbase for gambling, sending transactions back and fourth, could this have been an issue?
