That’s crazy that there is no verification system in place allowing the user to approve the forwarding.

Years ago I asked my carrier to not port or forward without me being physically present at a store. Maybe I should test them out to see if that’s still the case.

Regardless, I don’t use SMS MFA for anything important and even when I do, I have a 32 character password to go along with it.
