Surely any old 'yes' will do.
To my knowledge there is no recording of my 'yes' on any data base, anywhere.
I sure as heck can't get any money from my accounts by saying 'yes', and I know the passwords, and all security answers, plus the two factor authentication involving my finger print, and all my fingers at the moment are intact!
What am I missing?
Scam artists may be able to use a recorded “yes” to claim that the person authorized charges to his or her credit card or account.
