Coinbase ignores all emails. They are in over their heads.

I nearly fell for this 'man in the middle' spoof this morning if it weren't for my Firefox browser telling me to get the hell out after I clicked to submit my 2FA.  I suspect had Firefox not warned me the attackers would have run a script within seconds to empty my Coinbase account to another BTC address.

This is the spoof

Somehow I must have typed a 'd' instead of 'b'.  I use Authy 2FA and had input the token and clicked submit when Firefox alerted me.   I immediately changed my coinbase email address and password.  All is well and my coins are safe.

I sent Coinbase whitehat an email alerting them.
