Secure, but Cubersome to Use
October 3, 2022

1 entered email.
2 received text message with verification code.
3 entered verification code.
4 received text message instructing me to take a selfie. Not allowed to wear reading glasses, so instructions were hard to read.
5 selfie approved after about 15 seconds. Then allowed to enter my transaction.
6 received two text messages telling me to reply if I think this sequence was fraudulent. If I was committing fraud, I obviously would not reply, so these seem useless.
