Aways use 2FA when is possible
« on: October 11, 2019, 06:38:10 AM »
Let's give a little example, aways if you have a chance, setup the 2FA in all websites that you use, I've got a lot of LPC coins in they bounty when that shit worth a lot and I've invested 2k USD in LPC into the Snode platform, to earn from shared Masternodes.
One day I've loged to check how things was going and then, all my LPC was gone, Someone logged into my account, stoped my shared on the shared MN, started a withdraw, and also asked to support to make it faster, and it's crazy, back in the day the platform didnt send at least one link confirmation to my email, nothing, my money just gone away, and the way that I've could avoid this was simple, I should have activated the 2FA on my account, but I didnt, so I've lost 2k USD ( 8 months of mininus sallary in my country) , Yeah was Hard, but at least this gave me a lesson, I caould lose even more.

Never lost something just cause I really didn't put that 2FA for that matters, but I do recommend you to setup it on crypto, I mainly use games and it really doesn't matter on all my other gaming accounts. Too bad it's so easy to steal without 2FA.

Now I have 2fa for everything, Even in not related crypto things.
Better safe than sorry

Okay, since there is so much big need, I will try to use it much more often for sure then, I haven't thought that it so much important to that many people. I hope you are with me here totally and completely for example. I need to change sooo much...

Main thing that stops people from using F2A is something which is quite bad for them anyway. I mean it's too many steps for simple login and that's really true, that's why it's not so common yet, Do you see what I mean here ? I hope so.

From what I see here it looks like it really a must now for many many things if you want to work with them later anyway totally and completely. Can we go on or not ? I do not want to take part in that matter really. How should we go on ?

I agree with you. I have activated 2FA everywhere where it is possible. Crypto exchanges, crypto web sites, ebay, paypal, even gmail, and so on. Two Factor Authentication is a must.

For sure it's a must today, but I must say that sometimes it's really hard to get by when you do not need anything done and now it appears that you really can make it totally and completely anyway. It's really hard to activate it and then disable it in reality.

Sorry to hear about your experience. As for me, I lost the coins I earned through bounty campaigns because I can't retrieve my e-wallet. Most of them are shitcoins anyway but still, there are some tokens there that I could probably sell since they have value in exchanges somehow.

Regarding 2FA, yes, I use it on most of my important accounts and even enabled Authenticator that generates a code whenever I try to access the account. There's plenty of scammers and hackers nowadays, it is good to be vigilant.

This is a valuable lesson, some people are not even using 2fa now, and it's really important to do it.

You have provided very good information dear. I also prefer the 2FA. Because if you enable the google 2FA code or authenticator then there is no chance that you will be scammed or you will be hacked by a hacker. The google 2FA authenticator provides you security.
