This post doesn’t seem at all appropriate to me. Those scams are the most bottom of the barrel, low effort, have existed forever, and have nothing to do with Coinbase at all. I worry that pinging founders direct with this nonsense will keep them out of one of the few forums where I ever get to see them contribute.

Depends. Most CEOs I interact with are anti-fragile. The legitimacy of crypto has a lot to do with CB, so it is in everyone’s best interest to fight scammers being front page promoted by YouTube:)
I don't see RobinHood worrying about people sending money to Nigerian Princes.

Crypto trading being secure, reliable, engaging etc is important to coinbase. Not people being scammed in ye olde isk doubling trick.
