I am an Enrolled Agent (licensed by the US Treasury Dept. to represent individuals before the IRS...and prepare tax returns)...
I had 2 clients that are sisters in their 60's and invest in Crypto Currency received a call in late 2021 from someone purporting to work for Coinbase (a crypto coin exchange/broker) this worker convinced my clients to transfer some Crypto from their account to a more secured account (his account) one of my client's lost over $50k. Coinbase's response was not their problem. So be careful in verifying a caller's ID and in dealing with financial Institutions that are not based in the US.
