The activities of hackers is on the rise most recently and the cryptocurrency is a vulnerable grand for them to carry out they activities and even if you have total control of you assets it can still be taking from you without your permission. In fact most big exchange and block chain wallets are part of this problem, but there are still some reliable one you can choose from.

It is common that hacker will hunt the big exchange since there are more money and as a user of big exchange we have to be cautious when we are transferring funds to the exchange make sure that we don't left them there coinbase I think now got restored but I don't know if hackers still have access to this.

Yesterday, I logged into my Coinbase account after a long time and ... It's empty,

I have a small amount BCH and BTC there. 2 transactions were just made and sent all my BCH and BTC to somewhere.

Before that, I did not recieve any email, or 2FA SMS.

Now I lost all and dont know why.

Coinbase is a large company. there is a possibility that coinbase hacked, if it really happens, it will be news everywhere. I think initially your email was hacked, then hackers found out that you have a coinbase account, and changed your password, and hackers delete emails that enter from CoinBase because hackers have full access to your email. Hopefully this can make you more careful in the future!

Except if anyone reset ur account with ur login credentials , like example the passwords logic or same passwords using for diff accounts like facebook or gmail or any others. I think you may have missed or you accidentally moved it without knowing it.

I have never used Coinbase, but if you set up 2FA security you will not be able to hack the account. I think you may have missed or you accidentally moved it without knowing it. Coinbase will also send you an email in advance to confirm the withdrawal before they release it.

This is not only on Coinbase. Most of the exchange kind of wallets following the same I guess because once I was holding funds around 0.04 BTC in my localbitcoins.com account around 6 months I was not used this wallet to exchange or anything.

Once I am in need of money. I was tried to check the wallet but there is no fund there and I do not find the tx id for that too.

Really confused that time I suggest you to hold the funds on private key secured wallets not here.

It now a matter of concern because the system is already stable. The investor will get back their money soon. I suggest everyone to check back your wallet every time and try to avoid risk.

You should contact the helpline if you are interested in returning what you had in your coinbase account. I assume you were neglected about your account that caused this problem. Hereafter, you should be cautious.

To assume that Coinbase is hacked and the whole of crypto market have not taken some massive hit in price is what amazes me in Op and could pass off as a troll. Looking at his post history, it seems this account is only meant to complain about one thing or the other. Someone registered years back and made only seven posts with majority in investors based games and complains.

If you want to be taken seriously, you need to do more than just posting some random thoughts without support.

Hackers are getting smart day by day, now they can hack any website.

Of course they are and that is why its expected that platform custodians are also getting up to date about their security infrastructure. Coinbase knows this and I hope they continue to live up to this responsibility.

Have you contact the support staff of coinbase ? I think your balance can be recovered if the mistake on their site.
But if you find it the mistake because your account got hacked, then it cannot be helped anymore.
Anyway, always do not leaving your exchange account too long.

that is absolutely just a rumor, coinbased not just a small thing like your account it is a huge platform and it is not a easy task to hacked it, one can never do it just like that so I would request you to not to believe such kind of false newses.

I will suggest you to use hard wallets instead of wallets in web or mobile phones. Nothing can beat them when security is important. I know they cost a bit and are less comfortable in everyday use, but when you put it into the shelf in your room, no one can get your money.

You are absolutely right, sometimes it is worth spending a little investment to protect your bigger investment. So many bad people are out there who are always looking to exploit vulnerable systems, it is important to keep our assets as safe as we can.

I don't think it was a multy users hack, from what you say, the only victim was you, so, maybe you have a virus in your phone and computer and that way the hackers get access to your login data. It could be a physical hack too, maybe you leave your PC on and some one get access to it, or some one get your access data with a MITM attack at some coffe shop. Try to figure out how it happen to avoid it happens again.

Check the transactions.May be your account got hacked
I get email alerts regularly that some one is trying to access my coinbase account from android apps
I have 2FA and SMS and change my password regularly and I don't understand how my password is cracked by hackers.May be there is some insider involved in selling account data

I am extremely sorry for you. You should have checked your coinbase or wallet every single day. The crypto world is not safe for the normal users who are not cautious about their wallets. Hackers can easily understand that you haven’t logged in your wallet for a while.
