The real LPT here is to do only one thing with the one-time code: enter it into the website that asked you for it, immediately after doing an operation that you initiated.

Somebody asks you for the code? Scammer.

You get a code unexpectedly? Scammer might have your password.

My bank has sent codes to verify before, and it was legit. That's the thing.. so my lesson is to jusy always call the custpmer service # on the card directly no matter what now.. same for anything else

I would like to know what bank you use, so I can avoid them at all costs due to horrible security practices.
