“Out of the Blue” (previously working well) get challenged by FB/Meta to prove self. An email is sent to the effectf that “someone tried to login, was it you”, but regardless of the response provided, further login attempts are also challenged. If the “verification code” provided is entered, login proceeds, but subsequent logins repeat this cycle.
Private browse and guest profile produce same issue.
How can this issue be reproduced?
Attempt to login on Windows 10/Brave.
FYI, this problem does not occur on same PC with FireFox, nor on android or Linux versions of Brave from same location (identical IP at Internet facing router/modem)
Expected result:
Uneventful login as on other devices/browser.
Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.76.82 Chromium: 134.0.6998.178 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Additional Information:
As mentioned above this started “out of the blue” on a PC/Brave setup that had worked fine.
I can login without drama on the same PC and OS with FireFox and on other devices, Android and Linux.
Exit / Quit everything and Restart your computing device.
Test.
Some websites - such as Amazon.com will produce a likeness to what you now receive:
An email is sent to the effect that “someone tried to login, was it you” . . .
I learned, after some cycling through what you now experience (plus several phone calls to Amazon.com), to ignore those messages.
The website is not entirely satisfied about the website’s “portfolio” that it builds, about you - - - because something about what it collects, continues to be “inconsistent” . . . and thus, the generated e-mail.
Your last reply is about a 2-step, 2 devices (both known by the website, because you somehow authorized the website’s awareness of each device), routine for verifying a sign-in attempt ← not the same as the e-mail message:
