Is it possible to bypass two factor authentication? - QMark - Apr 10, 2019
Has anyone here ever bypassed two factor authentication? I'm wondering because I'm hoping its a realistic goal.
How would you bypass two factor authentication?
Let's say the user uses Authy on their smartphone.
The reason I ask is because I have Authy on my smartphone and I'm wondering how someone would go about cracking my accounts.

If someone knows how to SimSwap, then yes, your account could be hacked. But I doubt anyone would go through the trouble of SimSwapping someone just for an account. It takes time and patience, which I also doubt a lot of people have.

It can be done like the user stated above but it is too much work for one account. It usually is not worth it.
