I imagine it would probably take a heck of a lot of effort to set up widespread intercept of SMS 2FA messages, so I won't worry too much. Probably more likely to have my phone and/or wallet physically stolen for card & data harvesting.
I scanned the article and comments, and the revelation that the US doesn't yet use Chip & PIN on debit/credit cards staggered me. ![]() Really, this only reinforces my opinion that, for all its outward developed image, the USA is overall quite a paranoid, insular and backward country - at least compared to UK and Europe.) But maybe I'm the ignorant one) ![]()
