Hi All,

I received the same email just under an hour ago.

Have deleted it as I don't use Coinbase as, at the time I signed up, they only accepted US Bank account details. 

However the email had my full name on it so they must have hacked the site to obtain this information.

Have deleted the email.

Cheers

I know I can send bitcoins to someone from coinbase having just their e-mail. Perhaps someone can send a request in the same way.

I think that is a scam. Maybe their motive is to know if the email their sending has bitcoin in coinbase so they can hack it. My advise is don't bother to enter any information to them even to log in with their links. Smiley
