Serious security issue with Yahoo Mail SMS verification
I have forgotten my old Yahoo mail address. My old phone number is now in the hands of someone else due to SIM recycling. My old phone number was connected to that Yahoo account. Do you guys think that this person can access my old Yahoo account by sending themselves and Access Code via SMS? I am concerned deeply. This could be fixed by asking for DOB, name, etc. and not only relying on the phone number for identity verification, since phone numbers change Thanks
