According to reports, Coinbase was informed in January that customer data may have leaked by an employee or an outsourcing company, months before the company publicly revealed the incident last month.
Part of the violation, which Coinbase publicly released in a regulatory presentation of May 14, occurred when an employee of the Outsourcing Taskus firm caught photos of his computer with his personal personal phone appointment informed in June.
The former employees said they were tolerated that the employee and a suspended complicit supposedly gave him information about the Coinbase client to the computer pirates. According to the reports, Coinbase was immediately notified of the incident.
Taskus is an outsourcing company of US commercial processes that operates in India and was alleged in a demand filed in Manhattan on May 27 to have managed Coinbase customer service.
More than 200 Taskus employees were fired in a massive dismissal in January that attracted the protests and attention of the Indian media at that time. However, only two specific employees were identified as the main culprits behind the rape, which affected almost 70,000 clients.

Coinbase told The Outlet that he had “cut ties with Taskus staff involved and other foreign agents, and squeezed the controls.”
Coinbase rejected a $ 20 million rescue demand after the computer pirates leaked user data in mid -May, which led the company to make public.
