There's a landlord/apartment portal where the whole login process has changed to be:

1. Enter username (e.g. an email)

2. Choose from either email or SMS on file

3. Enter the code you got somehow through the respective unencrypted channel

Given that this same site is involved with bank-account details for payment, I am concerned...

Yeah — loose the phone and it’s pretty much game over.
