LOL indeed.  One might even say the smaller payment is an "Elite" level of BTC!   Cool

Got a weird login denial this morning on mobile.  Went to desktop and all was good with 2FA.  Wish I'd gotten a screenshot of the mobile page to send to them.  I won't describe the error message for security reasons.  I believe they know what they're doing and my account is protected.

Not Coinbase, just another late April Fool's/FUD thread.

Logged in fine, 2 FA, no issues at all.

It's your computer that's under attack, not coinbase.com.

On my PC, bitcoinwisdom.com was trying to redirect me to some untrusted cloudflare site today.

Chrome was like, "DON'T DO IT MAN!!"

I was like, "well shit.. okay, I'll just use my phone to check the market.."

I am not sure that this is an April Fool's joke.  I am getting the same error.  I have tried both Chrome and Firefox.



Just tried again.  Appears to be working now.

I am using Chrome, and I was getting the same error message. Mobile wallets will not sync from phone or tablet either. Something definitely going on.

Mobile wallets now syncing. Still will not log in when trying to enter 2nd level of authentication.

I attempted to log into my coinbase account this evening only to find that a security error existed and my web browser shut down the connection to the site stating that it could not connect to the real site. Are you guys having this same issue? Hopefully it is only a temporary thing and nothing goes missing whomp whomp
