serious question: how do these people know where to start looking? like, it can't be random. it has to be people with crypto getting their info reverse engineered after bragging on social media or Leddit or downloading shady torrents or something right?

Seriously be careful, I just got an email this morning from c-cex that "Authorization failed" by some asshole trying to login to my account from Brazil. They have my email address but I routinely change passwords on all my accounts every few months and yes, I use 2FA. It's okay to be paranoid because you are dealing with greedy autists who will try everything to get in, because even a small amount of Bitcoin can go a long way in many parts of the world.

Ah, it's one of those scammy emulators. lol, yeah, no.
If anything, Androidx86 on virtualbox is the way to go, but that does not solve the issue that you still need to trust google.
What's so hard about sending me a friggin text? Or just ask me for another email adress, so that 2FA won't cost anything, but nooooo, lets just let google datamine our "customers"
