Current headline: "Lyft leaked my credentials"

Sorta thought the story was going to involve leaked credentials.

First, I'm sure Lyft will take care of it in your favor.

Second, this is certainly an issue when utilizing SMS for authentication/login. I'm not sure the best answer since it can be a good way to support easy login/authentication. If phones send along a device ID, that might work. Not sure the frequency of same number on same "disposable" phone.
