To request a full refund on Coinbase for unauthorized transactions, follow these steps:

### 1. **Contact Coinbase Support**

- **Log in** to your Coinbase account.

- Go to the [Coinbase Help Center](https://help.coinbase.com/) and search for "unauthorized transaction" to find specific guidance.

- You can also visit the [Coinbase Contact Us](https://help.coinbase.com/en/contact-us) page for direct assistance.

- Youโ€™ll likely be directed to submit a request or use their live chat feature. Be ready to provide relevant details.

### 2. **Provide Relevant Information**

When contacting support, make sure to include:

- **Transaction Details**: Include transaction IDs, date, and amount of the unauthorized transaction(s).

- **Your Account Details**: Provide your email address associated with the Coinbase account.

- **Explanation**: Clearly state that you did not authorize the transaction and provide any supporting details (like if your account was compromised or if you suspect fraud).

- **Device and Location**: If relevant, mention where and from which device you accessed the account when the unauthorized activity occurred.

### 3. **Review Your Account**

- If you suspect your account was hacked, ensure that you update your **password**, enable **two-factor authentication (2FA)**, and check for any other suspicious activity in your account.

- Review any other associated accounts, email accounts, or devices that may be linked to the breach.

### 4. **Follow Coinbaseโ€™s Investigation Process**

Coinbase will typically investigate the claim, and the process might take time. Youโ€™ll be contacted by their support team with further steps, especially if they determine the transactions were unauthorized.

### 5. **Escalate the Issue (If Necessary)**

If the issue isn't resolved within a reasonable timeframe, you may need to:

- **File a complaint** with the **Better Business Bureau (BBB)** or the **Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)** if you're in the U.S.

- **Reach out on social media** (Twitter or Facebook) to get more attention, as companies sometimes respond faster in public forums.

### 6. **Consider Legal Action (If Needed)**

If the issue is not resolved to your satisfaction and the amount involved is significant, you may need to consult a legal professional for further options.

Coinbase is generally responsive to fraud claims, but the sooner you act, the better chance you have of resolving the issue. Make sure to keep track of all communications and evidence related to the unauthorized transactions.
