An unlock password can change the account password on an Android phone, and Google responded: it will balance and formulate a reasonable plan.
CTOnews.com, February 28 (Xinhua)-- the Wall Street Journal published an article last week pointing out a new type of theft: thieves look for victims in places such as late-night bars, observe the PIN codes entered by iPhone users, and then quickly change Apple ID passwords after stealing their hands.
The report points out that 99% of the theft gangs are currently targeting iPhone users, so they can get higher profits when they change hands.
The problem also exists on Android models. Developer Mishaal Rahman said in a tweet that changing the password of a Google account can be done with only a PIN code.
A Google spokesman issued a statement to the Wall Street Journal on the matter, which CTOnews.com translated as follows:
Our login and account recovery policy takes into account not only the access rights of users to their accounts in the actual scenario, but also how to effectively prevent bad behaviors. we balance these two factors and formulate a reasonable plan.
