I’ve almost had a heart attack today. One month ago a guy just stolen my iPhone from my hand while I was typing. Needless to say they did some credit card buying, etc etc.
But today when I look at Binance app I found that they logged in twice in the same day that they robbed me. Fortunately I had NO crypto there. But I used to have. At some point five years ago I had 50k there. Imagine if all that money was there now?
So what I did today: I’ve changed my phone number at Binance to my wife’s one. So if someone stole my phone he won’t be able to get the SMS with the code.
I also deleted the Authenticator. That seems odd but it’s more secure.
If you want to withdraw at Binance you must install an authenticatior. And you can only do this if you get a SMS with a code.
So if someone steal my phone he will also need my wife’s phone.
