So, these *brilliant* intrudersâthink James Bond but without the charmâthey corrupted customer support staff and third-party contractors in India. Genius move, really. Now theyâve got access to all the sensitive info because, apparently, security at Coinbase is just as tight as a plastic bag in a rainstorm. Then, shocker, they send a $20 million extortion letter. Wow. That’s some *creative* way to make a living. On May 11, Coinbase admits, âYep, got an anonymous ransom email, and, sure, weâre working with the DOJâbig surprise.â Paul Grewal, Coinbaseâs legal boss, says theyâre all inâlike a bad poker gameâyou know, hoping the law actually does something. Meanwhile, the DOJ? Crickets. Just sitting there, probably wondering why theyâre even involved in this mess.
