    Two-factor authentication is actually a good thing. Annoying though.

    This would be very funny if it weren’t so annoyingly accurate.

    And after that, select all images of a flying carpet.

    And the code will expire in 10 minutes. While your home is 15 minutes away.

    I was trying to make an online purchase with electronic payment. Twice the transaction went and then immediately disappeared. Checked with the vendor and their answer was “reversed by the bank”. Called the bank their story was “declined by vendor”. Tried it again next day (vendor was overseas) failed the same way. Used another card and went fine. Called the bank to tell them that problem was on their end and noticed a “suspiscious transaction text” while talking to the agent. Seems the bank had both land line and mobile numbers for account. Seems the first two tries the texts went to the land line.

    It’s a hoot when they insist of texting a verification code to me. I live in an area with no cell service

    It’s strange with me. I don’t have a cell, phone….never will. I’m happy.

    So, just why did I use a 16 symbol, randomly generated security code with my paternal great-grandfather’s maternal great-aunt’s middle name for a security question?

    If I lose my phone, I cease to exist on line.

    For some of my accounts, I have one-time use codes that are printed out. If anyone finds these sheets, they can take over those accounts.

    For others I can get an email instead.

    Still others will allow me to use a secondary phone (like calling my land line).

    One of my work accounts is set up so that I have an alternative – text the code to my lost phone or call my lost phone. IT can’t fix this for me. It has to do with punching in and out of work. I can always send paper correction sheets for this, so if that does happen, Payroll will probably allow me to set up the account the right way after several weeks of manual updates.

    Just one more step that makes everything take longer to accomplish.

    It’s hilarious when I’m on my computer and I’m told to respond to that message. I have 2 iPad minis sitting nearby and they both chirp with the notice. But the computer ITSELF pops up the code to be typed into the box—-on the computer. I like my fingerprint or face ID devices best.

    And if you get the code wrong three times you’ll need to do a CAPTCHA and get a new code.

    when eBay locks you out of your own account AS YOU’RE USING IT because their algorithm thinks it might be someone else. then won’t let you back into your account until you ‘change’ your password but won’t let you get into your account through their email to you, so you can change your password because they have locked you out of your account – 30 minutes of complete frustrating anger ALL TO PROTECT ME FROM THE BOOGIE MAN – sounds like the help of our government leaders and the mass media influensers – the whole world is going completely mad.
