Coinbase Ventures 🛡️

🚨 REMINDER: We are receiving an increase in reports of scam accounts impersonating affiliation with CB Ventures contacting teams on X and Telegram (likely for nefarious purposes). Only trust communications from official Coinbase Ventures sources in order to avoid scammers who are actively impersonating the @cbventures team. • Our verified account is @cbventures, marked with a blue verified badge & official Coinbase badge. • Legitimate team members are followed by @cbventures and use Coinbase email accounts. • Current Team list: @ShanAggarwal, @HoolieG, @jonathankingvc, @brandonmyint, @jimenachacon, @0xNoroc, @SteimetzKinji • Fake accounts may appear verified on X due to paid subscriptions. • We never DM on Telegram without a prior introduction. • We will never ask you to download any type of software to schedule a meeting or conduct a call. • We don’t use Zoom - only Google Meet, no .exe needed. • Scammers may reference CBV employees by name, or claim they are a personal assistant of a named CBV employee - this is social engineering - do not engage. If you come across a suspicious account, please report it directly on X or Telegram to help keep the community safe. Thank you, and happy building!
