Hi.
I’ve just had my phone stolen in Paris and i am locked out of all my account because of google authenticator. My phone was finger print and password locked.
Will they just want the phone for the hardware and wipe it or can they access my info on the phone? I have coinbase and revolut setup on the phone plus Amazon and all my emails etc. I am just worrying they could get access to that.
I have tried using google to wipe my phone but my number is not available and my other email address is locked to GA as well so I cannot access that.
Edit - I have managed to get google to looking at cancelling my account by setting up another email address and having a code sent to that. They say it will take 3 - 5 days for a response.
This whole thing has ruined a good holiday.
