> I have been receiving regular spear phishing calls from these guys, or someone who bought the leaked data, with classic tactics like claiming that I need to confirm a potentially fraudulent transaction.

And how long has this been at an increased level? Because i'm not buying the coinbase narrative that they thought this was a systemic issue until they were contacted by the 'cybercriminals'.

It started around the beginning of April, at the same time as I got an initial email from them about my account information being accessed. Which I'm thinking is probably the same breach as they're talking about here.
