Hackers are bypassing two-factor authentication, but it is still your best chance to safeguard online account

Hackers are bypassing two-factor authentication on target accounts through the use of automated bots that call the victim and ask for the authentication code. These bots are being sold on the Internet, and any hacker can use them to trick gullible users into sharing their sensitive two-factor authentication in order to gain access to their accounts. Two-factor authentication is thus a nightmare for hackers as the account credentials are simply useless without the authentication code. While hackers are able to bypass the two-factor authentication through the bots, they cannot actually hack the account when such verification is enabled.
