Wise. Sadly many banks are waaaaay behind the 8 ball with MFA options.
And still only offer SMS based 2FA.
It's better than nothing but clearly is very suseptible to this type of fraud.

If you can you should setup a sim pin as well. Makes it a lot harder to be sim

I know too many people that used SMS for 2FA and have had accounts hijacked through sim swaps

Two more things to prevent this: 1) Use SIM protection; 2) Don't use Android

My IRA didn't offer hardware MFA. A few years ago I barked really hard at them
