Ugh. 1.837 BTC. That's gotta sting.
Anyway, I really don't know what this Coinfirm thing is. But if this is actually a legitimate service that will do chainalysis for you, I'm guessing that it will cost a crap-ton of money. But really, I really don't know how they're going to get your uncle's funds(unless the hacker/scammer did something really stupid to trace the address to his/her identity).
I guess just try sending them a message and ask for price quotes because at this point you probably have nothing else to lose.
Topic: Coinfirm? Coinbase hack - page 2. (Read 256 times)
My Uncle unfortunately was the victim of bitcoin theft... Seems like they compromised his email account and possibly SMS authentication.
This happened roughly a week ago, and he is filing info through Coinbase.
Everything was converted to bitcoin and send to the following address:

Seems like Coinfirm's Reclaim Crypto is a great place for him to start. Has anyone successfully used them to get bitcoin back?

Has Coinbase covered losses for anyone like this in the past? I haven't found any success stories, but thought I'd ask here as well.
