Coinbase identity requests: verify the domain and recovery route

Check a Coinbase identity request through the signed-in account, recognise official document flows and distinguish verification from lost-2FA recovery.

Check inside the account first

Coinbase says verification requests appear after signing in. Open the known account address yourself and look for the request there. An email displaying the Coinbase name is insufficient evidence for uploading identity documents.

Keep capture inside the official flow

The guide identifies Coinbase-owned verification domains and says not to email identity photos to support. A phone QR continuation belongs to the active session; an expired or reused code may require restarting it.

Secure email as well as exchange login

The security guide recommends reviewing email forwarding rules, recovery details and unfamiliar devices. Make these checks when a request seems unexpected; a compromised mailbox can interfere with genuine notices.

Lost 2FA needs account recovery

The 2FA guide distinguishes backup methods from account recovery when no method remains available. Use that official process rather than sharing codes or installing remote-support software. A hardware key cannot simply be replaced by a stranger.
