Flavours of entanglement

1) Activate the Authenticator, take a note of the six-digit number.

6 digit? I guess the physical Authenticators and the applications are different. My app gives me 8 digits. That or you are just trying to run some sort of account stealing scam. Yeah that's it, you are just a highly evolved bot that has been building confidence and trust for years before you launch your insidious plot. I knew it!

Indeed. In fact, my plan has been so brilliant I've been forging it since before the invention of the Authenticator! Muahahahahaaaaah!

But seriously, key fob Authenticators generate six-digit codes. I didn't know that app Authenticators used 8-digit codes.
