Reset Wikitech 2FA access for Matthias_Geisler_WMDE
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Due to the lost phone, @Matthias_Geisler_WMDE can no longer log-in to his Wikitech account (missing 2FA key). Scratch codes also missing, hence account is out of order currently.
Can we please get the 2FA access reset?
I guess that could mean disabling 2FA for this account, and have user re-enable 2FA.

If there is a need for @Matthias_Geisler_WMDE to confirm his identity, please suggest the preferred way to do it.

https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Password_reset#Reset_two_factor_authentication suggests "Have the user write a request to disable 2fa in their home directory on a CloudVPS/Toolforge bastion"

If you recognize them, have a face-to-face or in a video chat.
If someone on WMF staff recognizes them, have a three-way video chat where a staffmember vouches.
Have the user write a request to disable 2fa in their home directory on a CloudVPS/Toolforge bastion.

@Matthias_Geisler_WMDE I can have a video call with you in a little bit, verify and then remove it.

Confirmed in a call, will go and reset this now

You should now be able to login and setup 2fa again
I'll leave this open for you to close as resolved once your logged back in!
