[NFBCS] Amazon 2-factor

[Peter]

Hello Tracy and everyone,

	If you're going to use 2FA be sure you include a phone number so the
OTC can be sent to you via your cell phone instead of an e-mail message. We
learned this the hard way earlier this month when our Amazon Account was
hacked. I'm pleased to say that everything has been fixed and our Amazon
Accounts are as good as new.

Tracy:

This Amazon help article should assist you in setting this up. The article
contains a link to the advanced security settings where you go to enable
this.
Hope this is useful.

I read the discussion about setting up Amazon with 2-factor authentication,
but I can't find where to do it.  I looked at my Amazon account, but don't
see a place to change any settings.  What's the very first step in getting
2-factor, after logging into Amazon?

Thanks.

Tracy
