penguin42 | interesting; just had a new type of sms confirmation flow; they display a number on the webpage, phone you and ask you to tap in that number on your phone, then do the normal sms where they send a number to you | 13:21 |
---|---|---|
zxmpi | so they already know your number, have to hope the web page isn't a spoof page? | 13:23 |
penguin42 | yeh so that was after logging in with id/password | 13:24 |
zxmpi | and hope they haven't had all their users/passwords pinched in the last while :-) | 13:25 |
penguin42 | I'm trying to figure out how it helps; I mean it confirms that the person with the phone can see the contents of the screen | 13:28 |
zxmpi | just feels like an extra level of complexity, just security theatre | 13:29 |
daftykins | strange stuff! | 13:32 |
zxmpi | at this stage i'd be on for a go your post office to pay/sign/confirm details option. | 13:33 |
zxmpi | would keep post offices in business. get a few people off their arses. give everyone something new to complain about :-) | 13:34 |
daftykins | hehe | 13:34 |
zxmpi | and increase the chances of people paying ahead of you with a bucket of pennies getting bumped off :-P | 13:35 |
