What we do to protect your mail.
You need to think first!
When unsubscribing never put in your email address. These are tricks that only verify your email address, which lead to them selling it to other spammers.
Never put in your password while unsubscribing.
The prompt may not be slow all the time. It is depended on many factors. Here are some suggestions and recommendations.
Try opening the app it is requesting you to open on your mobile.
Then if it is still slow you could select try another way and find a backup code to use. Not recommended yet- This is your only option when you don't have your phone, but in this case you do.
We would recommend that you also setup the Google Authenticator app.
Now when the prompt is slow or not working which can happen, you can select try another way and use Get a verification code from the the Google Authenticator app.
See our written documentation here on how to this setup or see our video on how you may set this up.

Be Very very conservative about the stuff you plug into your browser to give extra functionality.
Listen to your voice of reason
Scammers use mail, email, phone calls, texting as ways to get you to divulge information. You will be the one that struggles to verify their TRUE identity. Why not just let unknown numbers or unexpected business calls go to voicemail.
When you answer a call and interact with the voice prompt or by pressing a number, it lets spammers know your number is real. They can then sell your number to another company or begin targeting your number more frequently. The same is true when you respond to a text that you can't identity. Never assume because the number appears local that it really is local.
