Haha, really, making MFA too strict ends up hurting yourself. I've fallen for this trap before, and only later did I realize there are recovery options to save the situation.

I went straight there, and the MFA was so strict that it actually locked me out. This kind of thing is really frustrating, but on the other hand, there must be a way to recover it.

Oh no, I've been through this too. Setting the security code too strictly ends up trapping yourself, it's so embarrassing.

Haha, MFA sometimes doesn't prevent hackers, it prevents yourself.

Locking yourself outside the door is really the ultimate move; MFA was originally a safeguard but ended up becoming a hassle.

Haha, I got locked out by MFA before, and the feeling was really intense. Luckily, I had a backup plan to rescue me.
