Could you elaborate on what a Coinbase email scam entails? I've heard about it but am not entirely sure of the specifics. Does it involve fraudulent emails pretending to be from Coinbase, attempting to trick users into providing sensitive information like passwords or account details? Or is it something more elaborate, like phishing links disguised in email messages? How widespread is this scam, and what steps can Coinbase users take to protect themselves from falling victim to it?
