Re: SIM Swap vulnerabilities/ 2FA risks
I see that Tmobile does have a security feature to prevent unauthorized SIM swaps (seems it was available in 2022 though this is the first I’ve heard of it). Have to go into account to click the SIM protection on. If I understand it correctly, if the account holder does want to change SIM cards then they have to go into their account to turn the SIM protection off. My question is, is this really doing anything? If a hacker has your password for Tmobile, won’t they just go in and turn the SIM protection off? I’m failing to see how this is really protection our accounts and essentially our lives. Anyone have any thoughts on this that I may be missing? Thank you33Views1like0Comments
