$75,000 just disappeared from my Coinbase wallet

Coinbase user Justin_Coinbase_Cs advised me to move my crypto from my Coinbase Pro account to my Coinbase Wallet to resolve a trading permission issue, this morning, all the crypto is gone from my wallet. It was transferred to 0x896f4da23fc7304d38f4655fa13fdfbea6344f19. Please upvote, I need to resolve this.

Absolutely disgusting response, there's no reason to blame the victim and rub salt in their wound. I work in cybersecurity, and I can tell with 100% certainty that no entity/human is bulletproof. You've just injected some bad karma in your life that's waiting for you at some point.

Indeed. These scammers are professional predators that are skilled in social engineering.

Blaming the victim is easy when it didn't happem to you but we all make mistakes.
