You can never be sure, but most probably yes.

This is madness. The hardware token was secure, unlike SMS.

Hacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated. SMS-based verification isn’t necessarily safe because someone who has your personal info (like the last four digits of your Social Security number or credit card), or even a fake ID in hand, can fairly easily call your carrier’s customer service and change the SIM or move the account over to another carrier. This hack method redirects all of your texts — including two-factor authentication codes sent over SMS — to the hacker.

Security expert Jessy Irwin said that while SMS is the least secure method for two-factor authentication, it’s better than nothing, and not inherently good or evil. “Where things get sticky isn’t actually the two-factor auth, it is when SMS is configured to be used for account recovery,” Irwin warned.


Or see:

Also:

There are security weaknesses in the use of SMS as an authentication method, primarily a matter of the telephony signalling protocol (SS7). SS7 allows network providers to transfer data between themselves and is widely used for legitimate purposes. Unfortunately, the age and necessary open nature of the protocol means that it is vulnerable to use by fraudsters posing as a network provider through a legitimate MNO. They can then divert calls and messages to a mobile phone of their choice.

Do you ever read the forum, or are you just another troll here? The answer is in front of your eyes.

PaySafe confirms there will be a requirement to define a mobile number for existing customers who don’t have any in their account yet.
If there is a mobile number assigned already, the system will use it to send the code as previously described.
If that number is not valid, there will be a need to get in touch with customer service as the system won’t allow to log in to the account.

A quick update on Skrill's Stronger Customer Authentication (SCA)

The phone authentication is now live, for the following countries:
Bulgaria
Canada
Romania
Ireland
Netherlands
Sweden
Norway
Denmark

The rest of the countries will follow in the days to come.

Important notice. Clients will still have the option to completely skip this step. However, we strongly suggest to all clients to finish the authentication now, in order to avoid adventures later.
We 'll keep you posted when we have more news.
