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?
voice validation screening, fidelity uses this technology when dialing in for human help. Once validated, the person can use his own voice to do whatever he/she wants with your account.

So if the person has bought all your personal information on line, they can be you to the financial services firm.

the crooks have more imagination than you have security measures. . .
