Got an authentication text from Coinbase out of the blue and thought it was suspicious so I logged on to my account and had a password reset request from China...

Guess I'm gonna have to move ALL of my coin to paper wallets. Seems like Coinbase is no longer safe even for the tiniest bit of coin I had on there.

I don't get it, someone made a password recovery request pretending to be you, anyone can do this, with any website, anywhere. So Coinbase shouldn't offer password recovery? As long as they don't also control your email account whats the problem?

I would immediately change your email account's password, because the above scenario is absolutely correct, and for someone to have bothered to do this in the first place, they likely would've had reason to believe they were in control of your email.
