To start, having your Google Ads account hijacked can be devastating, and it is just that much worse on the agency level. Your budgets can be spent, your bank accounts can be depleted, and your account history and reputation can be ruined. All of this can also lead to losing advertising clients and maybe worse. We covered some of this in our November story.
I've been an Amazon customer for 20 years, but after changing my phone number, I'm locked out of my account because two-factor authentication (2FA) still uses my old number. I've called Amazon six times, sent photos of my driver's license three times, and even emailed executives using your contacts but no one has fixed it. Amazon updated the phone number on my account, but 2FA remains broken.
Neither I nor anyone on my team can access it, or any of our accounts. We received emails of an unknown administrative user being added. This person then linked their own MCC to many of our accounts. That's all we know. We have 2FA enabled on all accounts. No idea how this happened. Is there anyone who has dealt with this and can help?
Players of Obsidian Entertainment's Outer Worlds 2 are apparently trying to provide feedback on the game, but judging by the user's complaint, are getting blocked by its two-factor authentication (2FA) system. In this case, Obsidian Entertainment's support team sent the user an email, which Ango shared on X, instructing them them to contact the "specialized account security team" via email. But the email provides the support address for Ango's company - the wrong Obsidian.
