idk about u, but when it gets to the 2fa when i sign in it gives three options one is email.

if i was a hacker and i had the option to choose a 2fa and given the choice it said do u want to go to the cell phone or the email i would pick email.

so if some hacker gets the password, just suppose they got your password, and now they enter it in and sign in then it asks for 2fa then it says do you want to go the email 2fa then if i hacked your pc i would choose yes then go to the pc and get the 2fa email delete it then sign in.

which i could not do if the email had 2fa as well.

theres reports of a well known player getting hacked even with 2fa and its probably because his email is hacked too. and doesnt have 2fa on his email tied to his cell phone.

"just choose the cell phone when asked for how to get 2fa when u sign in" koochi q...! 🙂

  @gg123xyz Chances are people who route 2fa to their email use the same pw for email and this game. So yeah they will get hit easily. Email option is because some do not have a phone number or want to use it
