Today I was logging into my new phone for the first time. This was the Samsung ON5, when going to sign into google I had forgotten my password. I went through the forgot password link and chose to use my phone number for verification. There was a notification saying I would be sent a verification text message, which I did almost immediately but the very next thing to pop up was a password change form for a new password to be entered in twice. Never was I asked to enter the numbers from the security text message. My password is now changed without any proof I was who I say I am.
