Expert Opinion

Like a persistent mosquito buzzing at night, unsolicited verification texts keep circling your inbox. The majority of reports point to a generic SMS gateway that forwards one‑time‑passcodes from services such as Microsoft, Dropbox, Yahoo, Steam and Blizzard. While the codes themselves are legitimate in principle, the sender’s number isn’t linked to the original provider, making it a classic phishing vector. If you receive a code you didn’t request, ignore the message, do not click any links, and consider blocking the number. Enable app‑based authenticators, review recent login activity, and report the incident to the affected service’s security team. Keeping your 2‑FA channels private cuts off this scam at the source.
