does Coinbase have a "safeword" in their e-mails?

for example at Binance account you can set personal safeword that's included in every mail they send. Binance doesn't know this safeword and it's included automatically, it's just the account holder who knows it.

Be sure You have activated it if there is an option for something similar.

I had to look it up.

No, Coinbase does not explicitly have a designated "safe word" system within their email verification process; however, they emphasize that they will never ask for sensitive information like passwords or 2-factor codes directly through email, so if you receive an email requesting such details, it is likely a scam and should be ignored

I never click email links, I go directly to the site if it's something that seems important but not obviously a fake. That goes for all sites.
