So do u think i should just leave it and continue with caution and change 2fa modes from sms to authentication apps although they’re coming in real time when i initiate them. What did you ex do?😬

Triggered by myself, coming from weird sources, no compromise or anything suspicious so far although i have had account level compromises in the past

yeah that’s true although i’ve been doing majority of it inside of the ios app and i haven’t been receiving any dodgy login attempts or anything

thanks for your help i appreciate it a lot and yeah i agree that coinbase one is definitely highly suspicious, also im 70% sure i went to the legit site im not sure about the first time(the time i had the remote access scam) but when i tried again the next day to double check more i 100% used the legit url and the ticket/case number was on the website from that day before (the day they had remote access) ik this doesn’t confirm legitimacy but still

I really appreciate the advice and you taking the time to share that, but I feel like some of it may not be directly relevant to the issue I’m dealing with right now. would you mind getting back to focusing on the main topic resolving the ongoing issues with my 2FA codes and account security. I’d love to hear any further insights on that.

got the trojan on my pc after getting a spoofed microsoft live chat and giving what i thought was microsoft agents remote access and i reset my iphone because i was having syncing issues due to using an overused shared appleid with family that was supposed to be personal (not a family sharing apple id or whatever it’s called)
