Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds security by requiring approval for login attempts, but it isn’t foolproof. Cybercriminals use MFA fatigue scams to overwhelm you with repeated login prompts via email, text, or calls, hoping you’ll approve one. They may also impersonate support teams, urging you to verify a fake security alert. Another tactic involves late-night phone call verifications, catching you off guard. To stay safe, never approve unexpected MFA prompts, change your password if you receive one, and use strong, unique passwords for each account.
