nightcraw1er.488: If that is the case, and these things do tend to slowly creep into Europe as well, I would drop most of that banking functionality. Rarely do i use it anyways, I prefer cash.
I thought you just rang the NSA and they logged you in? :o)
OldFatGuy: Oh, sorry, my bad, I didn't even notice you were from Europe. I should've stipulated banking sites in the USA. I (obviously) have no clue about banking/financial sites elsewhere. Sorry about that. I thought you just rang the NSA and they logged you in? :o)
One account I have has a login and password that I can use anywhere without 2FA BUT if I want to make any sort of bank transfers to pay for something then I have to enter in a code from a card that has a whole bunch of these codes hidden under the same scratch off material you'd find on scratch offs :) So even if someone did get access to my account, they wouldn't be able to do anything as any major changes require entering a code from my scratch card.
Another one of my accounts has the two step authentication set up whenever I try to pay with my debit card online.
