Google verification code

When to expect Google authenticator codes?

Google only sends code for two important things - your Gmail account and your Google business card.

Gmail - If you already have a Gmail account, you will receive a password to your mobile device number as a text message because:

• You are having trouble logging into your account and want to password reset.
• You have enabled two-factor authentication on your account and are using it.
• Because Google wants to make sure you're a real person, not a robot.
• Because Google wants to verify that it's really you.
• There have been some changes to your account.
• You change passwords to your Google account or update security settings.
• Create a recovery phone number.
• Singing up on the new devices.

Google Business Profile on Google maps - when you wish to verify the ownership of your company's business profile on Google. In this case, Google can send the codes to us in several ways:

• By postcard with six-digit code sent to the address given in your company profile - that will verify your business location.
• By text messages to a mobile number.
• The machine can make a phone call to us with Google's voice number.

Be aware of the scams and frauds!

• Google verification codes are always free of charge - and they will never ask you to pay for them.
• When you answer the verification call or read the text message, you're asked to enter the six-digit verification code from Google. Never do this under any circumstances other than when you initiate this procedure yourself.
• Never share your verification codes with third parties.
• When you notice something is not right - log in and change your password immediately.
