Ive used face scanning on some other crypto service, but didnt know its a thing in banking. Thanks for sharing, but it still doesnt explain why I need that just to unsubscribe. I could accept that they are trying to protect me, but they obviously have diferent plans. My experience and recent communication with support proved NiceHash is ran buy toxic garbage and not by people who run a bank or anything close to that.
They need to be sure it's you who's unsubscribing, I suppose. There's been enough social engineering to not rely on emails only.
I see that selfie is the only solution to unsubscribe (if not involving lawyer or just spam filter).
I understand what you are saying, but If I lost my email why would they send newsletter to a new owner? It just makes no sense since 99% can be unsubscribed with no login or whatever they ask.
Sorry, its hard to accept any safety meassure as explanation due to bad reputation of NiceHash. Also after talking to human support I just feel even less safe tbh, but it doesnt surprise me at all, its company that took my crypto back in a day.
Ill try fake pic when I get some time to burn
