Ok so they reset your 2fa to a new phone number and got access that way?

They still need to enter your password though to even get access to 2fa?

you can after resetting 2fa at the same time reset password. all you need is the email address and/or phone number. take a look at this @bdlowery - 2fa - help.x.com/en/forms/account-a… - then help.x.com/en/forms/account-a…

this is btw happening a lot on X. eightsleep, a partner at a16z, etc. - a lot are getting hacked to launch silly scam coins - this is the hype du jour - x.com/launchcoin/with_replies

they even got the two time ex-malaysian prime minister during the pumpfun era of a few months ago

ok so basically having 2fa makes your account weaker? and It's better to just use a password manager with a strong password

i just cannot imagine how not having 2fa makes sense - we also get recovery codes and that should be used - but you can social engineer your way. strong password also can be reset if they know your email and/or phone number. its just - a shit show @bdlowery
