When I tried logging in to an older account of mine, I was ‘greeted’ by a 2-Step Verification notice.
On one of these accounts I was able to figure out the email used for it by swapping through multiple addresses and finally finding the right one. I did not remember ever switching this feature on and indeed, when checking my security settings, the email verification codes option was not enabled.
On another account where I received this message on however, I do not recall what email I used for it and all those years it wasn’t a problem until now when this message popped up.
If I had known this pop-up would suddenly appear years later (despite me never having turned on the feature in the first place), I would have updated my email to a different one that I still use and know.
Has anyone else been getting a 2-Step Verification message despite the feature not being turned on?
And does anyone know what I can do to log in again or to migrate this email to a different one?
I remember the first six letters of the email and what’s after the @, but not quite the second part.
