People are ragging on security questions like actual financial institutions aren't still using them.
The problem with a security question isn't saying "you got question B wrong" or letting someone have infinite guesses. Those are both bad ways to implement security questions. The problem is getting people to enter and remember values to security questions when they can't even be bothered to tie a real email address to the account.
I'm personally fine with just verifying purchases. If someone has access to your account they already have access to: create date, geo, lifetime spend, last login, and last purchase (among other things). Those questions are useless to someone with a base64 decoder.
Verifying purchases doesn’t work for alt accounts as I have no idea which purchases were for which account.
So the answer is people that don’t know the security questions just are screwed and stuck with an old out of use email. Great service to the customers
You think your account would be secure if I asked you 3 questions.. you got 2 right and 1 wrong and i tell you.. No.. question 2 was the city you lived in... Answer was not New York.. try again... No Its not New Jersey, try again... No its not Miami, try again ... Lol
Anyone naming New Jersey for a city probably shouldn't get their account back anyway.
Jersey city.. same thing.. no one carse about New Jersey 🤣
No one cares about North Jersey, but some of us do care about South Jersey. Still hoping for a split one of these days.
