Very interesting article. I had the same thing happen to me a few times when i used to trade Forex, at the end of the day Coinbase is just a corp like any other. Although you was didled out of $1k it may turn out to be tuition fees for saving or making you more money in the future (i hope thats the case), certainly makes a fellow Steemian more distrusting of crypto exchanges. Thank you for sharing your experience.
