My UK financial institutions still seem to use OTP's for access and a version of it for transactions in some cases. I don't disagree that it has issues but appears to still be used.

I am not aware of any big bank in Thailand offering "proper" non-OTP 2FA. Which is why my personal conclusion in these imperfect circumstances was that using the app is better than going via the internet as I wrote above. But if there is any bank with "proper" non-OTP 2FA, this would of course be the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banana7 Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 (edited) Lots of software available and used by many agencies in many contries, including Thailand, that can hack your phone. The software can be bought, leased, rented, and also for one time use, you could hire someone in one of those agencies to do you a favour (or a brown envelope service), and hack someone's phone. Checkout Pegasus, which is spyware developed by the Israeli cyber-arms company NSO Group, just one providers of such software. Nothing is safe on a phone especially in Thailand.

Mickeymaus Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I have no fear. But what gets on my nerves is that pretty much every bank that I use has a different procedure. The worst is a European bank. First you login with username and password at the browser. Then the browser will show you a QR code. This code you have to scan with an app at a second device. This app will show you then a code. This code you have to enter in the browser. Insane... Without 2 devices you have no access. And my other banks have their special procedures too.
