Parzi88451yMine recently told me "hey, we're upgrading our systems! All those extra safety features you love? Say goodbye!" so there's definitely shenanigans going on overall.

@Demolishun I really hope they actually have decent software to compare my selfie with my id photo

Tonnoman6271yTBF caller IDs can be spoofed right?
That being said a picture in modern times is not a good verification of anything either -
@Tonnoman I didn't know caller ids can be spoofed.
How is it that picture verification (taken with a smartphone though their bank app) isn't enough though?
Normally no one but me has access to my face

My bank created a "new and improved" banking app asking me to take a selfie after first sending them a picture of my id.
I am already a customer of the bank, they have a copy of my id, why do they also want a selfie?
Also with the old banking app I could just call them from my phone number (which they also have) and they confirmed it was me over the phone by asking 2 questions and then provided me with a code to just enable the app on my personal phone.
