Speaking of P411...

 
I just received a message from P411 stating that they now support 2FA via authenticator apps. It's a good idea to use one for extra security for any account that supports their use (banking, Amazon, etc).

 
I use a phone app called Aegis after reading numerous reviews and recommendations. It's free and works great.

I turned it on but found it cumbersome. My hobby phones are well secured + VPN, etc. So I wanted to drop it but no way to do that "on line". I had to send a message to customer support to turn it off. Good thing I set up my 2 security questions cuz CS asked for the answers to those.

We had been verifying through our phone number. No we use our email address. The process remains the same.

What does a secure phone have to do with it? P411 is a website that anyone can access. I use 2FA via an authenticator app on every site I use that supports it. It's hardly cumbersome. It's one small extra step to login. I find it much easier and preferable to getting a text message or email.  

I've heard plenty of stories of emails being intercepted and SIMs being cloned to allow interception of text messages.
