Did that "fraud department" gave you a link to connect your wallet? I'm sorry to say that if a transaction has already been confirmed by the network, it's irreversible.
The hacker has it already and there's no way for you to retrieve that hacked funds of yours unless that hacker becomes kind and sends it back to you. But they are hackers and they won't do that.

This is what im thinking that Coinbase CS wouldnt really be that dumb on telling someone on revoking transactions yet its totally irreversible which is really that common sense which i do also suspect

out that the one he had been talking is just a scammer/hacker pretending to be part of the team.We know that Etherscan is a blockexplorer on checking out wallet addresses balance and other information
and it has nothing to do about revoking or something which is just totally a dumb kind of way on fooling newbies around.

I've seen this case in social medias and people really have believed that they're talking to an actual customer support. It's not for Coinbase but for other exchanges that are always being used as tools and disguise by these scammers.
It's really likely that he's talking with a scammer and that's the reason why many have been falling for it because they really thought that it's the actual one and there's an impact of being scared like "if the customer support says so".

They wouldn't really be putting themselves on harm if they do just do their part on making out some research first and do only follow on legit and valid links and not just came from
recommendation by someones because it is likely you are really dealing with a scammer.Just been said that this is just an explorer and not something could revoke out transactions
because there's no such thing exist because once transactions been broadcasted then there's no way on cancelling it out.

You will end up spending more money trying to reverse the transaction, there is no crypto police out there that can reverse Ethereum transaction, next time stay away from coinbase wallet because it's centralised, though this isn't why you lost your assets, that's due to your carelessness.

I had my coinbase wallet hacked and coinbase fraud dept said I can "revoke" the transaction on etherscan. It says in order to revoke (on etherscan) I need to connect wallet. I have a coinbase wallet and have no idea if I can or how to connect it. Coinbase says I can but I dont see how to.

You can't reverse a transaction which is made on a decentralized blockchain and since you're talking about etherscan so I guess its ethereum or tokens transaction, I don't know who told you but you can't connect your coinbase wallet to anywhere and etherscan is just an explorer so you probably using a fake site which ask you to connect your wallet and drain everything you have there in no time.

There's nothing you can do once the transaction has already confirm and I didn't see any case that the owner retrieve the balance what stolen to them so I guess you need to move on in this issues. Maybe next time be more careful upon handling your wallet and don't trust people claiming that they can help you since mostly they have bad intention and want to stole your money.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope

Some of the members above have cleared up the Op's misunderstanding. But Op's problem seems to need more explanation because we don't really know what kind of hacking method he's going through. If hackers have actually managed to steal the Op's privatekey, then revoking authorization permissions is a useless precaution.

Why need to put a Poll for this? lol .

And since they have told you about revoking the transaction then why not ask them how to do that? but if they asked you for some important details and personal as well? then this is a BS Scam attempt because there is no such thing as revocation of transaction in crypto.

May be they mean revoking token allowances? If so you could use: https://etherscan.io/tokenapprovalchecker

Revoking will cost you gas fees, you are better of creating new wallet imo.

of yeah means the token allowances and not the whole transactions .

If the transaction was not confirmed you can still do it, but 100% it's a blackmail/scam attempt email,

That's for sure. It is a scam/blackmail and it is dangerous if that department representative has sent him a link where to connect. And knowing that it's from a Coinbase department/representative, they should be aware that transactions aren't revocable.

Quote from: saxydev on March 07, 2022, 04:58:10 AM

I would love to get a PM with the email and forward to me.

This will solve our suspicions, if it's not an official email and domain from Coinbase then that's an absolute scam that he has received.

In any way, confirmed transactions won't be refunded. Tongue

You seem to have misunderstood about "revoke" the transactions, it is revoking authorization permissions to the smart contract dApps to which you've connected such as dex or nft platforms. Check here to learn about it: https://info.etherscan.com/tokenapprovals, and yeah you can use etherscan.

Sorry to tell you that it's impossible to revoke a transaction in the Ethereum network once confirmed by the miners.

Can you please screenshot the conversation part between you and coinbase support in which they recommended you to connect your wallet to etherscan?
Something fishy here. Simply because etherscan is a public blockchain explorer which doesn't allow users to connect any type of wallets to it, and i doubt that coinbase support department would advice you to do so.
Otherwise, can you describe how the hack was done? At least the department can provide detailed info unless your login info have been hijacked in someway.

Lol, "revoke a transaction"?

Looks like it's phishing attempt. If possible, please share with other the Etherscan link they sent you to confirm this, and I am guessing they are asking for your seeds or Email and password to connect your coinbase account. Etherscan is Like the Google search Engine of Ethereum Blockchain. it's only used to explore addresses, transaction IDs etc.

He already got hacked and now he is going to get phished again, damn that would be a double loss for him if ever he carelessly connect his wallet on the fake page that he sees. I've been using etherscan a lot of times but I never heard that it has the ability to revoke a transaction I think it was not their job but for this things, it must be on the wallet side and also I think an exchange can revoke a transaction too.

If someone ask for our seed phrases and private keys, that is also a sure sign that they are hackers but only newbies are going to get fooled with this. It's important that if we have issues, we don't just search online for help because we can reach the wrong people or customer support.

they tricked you mate because there's no connect wallet in etherscan like what we usually see in some swap sites and other platform.

And to revoke transaction in etherscan? To be honest with you mate i've been here in crypto space for how many year and what i know about etherscan is it can be use to scan our erc20 wallet and to check the history details of our address, wherein no such feature that you can revoke your transaction.

You are being fooled.

There is no such coinbase fraud department. You will understand the scam only if you have a better understanding of how transactions occur on the blockchain, allow me. Once you have approved a transaction, there is no way for anyone to reverse this transaction. Bitcoin has the ability of RBF but that is a different discussion. Unlike fiat based payments where banks can interfere and reverse a transaction, no such thing exists here.

So whoever contacted you posing as "fraud dept" is a scammer and you should not connect your wallet on their site. Very likely they will steal the rest of your coins in that wallet once you enter the private key. Whoever knows your private key can spend your coins without you knowing.

Etherscan is a explorer and help you to track transactions.
In etherscan, you can enter your ethereum address and see its transaction history.
Note that you can only see the address the fund has been sent to and there is no way to know the identity of the hacker. If your wallet is hacked, the fund is gone.

Also note that you should never connect your wallet to a website you don't know what is actually doing.
It's the first time I've heard of connecting a wallet to etherscan. I hope someone isn't trying to scam you.

EtherScan is a Blockchain explorer, and I don't know of a single case where the platform could be used to "revoke" the transaction. I'm pretty sure you're mistaken. Is it possible that the coinbase security department tried to explain to you how you can use Etherscan to investigate a transaction? To see where the funds went or something like that...
