Coinbase is down

Last week I received an automated email from them saying my 2-factor settings had changed and that if I didn't initiate it, please contact them.

I contacted them and they sent this: "You received an SMS and email notification indicating that your 2FA settings were changed. Please note that this message was sent in error and your 2FA settings have not been changed."

Wow.

Same thing happened to me. I tried to log in, but the number on my account had been changed. Support has simply said to create a new account... But what about my holdings and bank account connection?

seriously coinbase?

Ouch, that would give me a heart attack considering the recent buzz about hijacked SMS being an attack vector:

Note that Coinbase sent an email out some weeks ago telling customers to switch to Google/Microsoft Authenticator instead of relying on Authy and SMS: https://blog.coinbase.com/how-to-increase-your-coinbase-acco...
