Same comment as I made on the other thread. These are not your email addresses. These are buy it now / donation pages. If you haven't created one of these you aren't effected.

This is really bad... writing a harvester to go over all these links and fetching your name, email and phone number is super easy.
In my opinion CoinBase should immediately disable the end-point.
