I will advice everyone to be security conscious although those messages  has little time frame before it expires, but it will be better everything is been cleared after transaction to be on the safer side either from  law enforcement or scammers , because if those transactions history are left unclear it can endanger the individual lives or attract problems to them , so to me it’s better one clear every transaction.

Some of our users has posted a lot of privacy and security related post . Especially the ones related to technical security and stuff .

But I create this post for something simple , most of us here in this space we always do different transactions every day (cryptocurrency transactions), and our email always send us authentication code during and others securely messages .

I have  noticed that most folk don’t delete these messages afterwards, which isn’t safe to me , someone can easily come across in your device and it may endup endangering your live.  If someone gains access to your device and sees those messages, it could put your security and even your life  at risk. So better to play it safe by deleting those emails, whenever you are done with the code , sometime something this simple can save lives .
There is no way on earth a previously used security code can be reused for another session, whether you delete it or not, it has expired, it's just like 2fA (2 factor authentication) if a reputable CEX's can be easily breached like that, the would've been sued already for having a lax security system,
It is called 2FA for a reason, and that is to add a second layer of security to your account, they usually do that so that if maybe your account is compromised, it can't be easily logged in or accessed unless they have access to your email, and if they have access to your email, there is no amount of deletion that will save your account cause they can even change your password and do whatsoever they want.

We are in a jet world where there are lots of eventions out there with aim of hacking into peoples device
I have also seen some people screen shoot there phrase and password as mean of securing it on there phones for easy access which could be very easy to captured puting the owner of such account into high risk.
Downloaded links or files could also endanger anyone security if the link are to harmfull to document in the phones.

Yeah, you’re right, but then most of these transactions app that sent that send authentication code to your email, has a time duration of 30 sec or thereabout, but leaving your message notification open is it a good idea, like you said, you might be a target after someone has come across such infos, you never know. On my own end, I lock both my transaction notifications and other messages as well just to be on the safer side, because almost all the time I’ve understand the severity f someone trying to liquidate all you have losses.

I have never deleted any of those authentication messages in my emails before, the thought has never crossed my mind because I feel those codes can only be used once and cannot be usable again. To enhance the security of such messages, it has been given a time lint that it can expire because of intriguing of any circumstance into your store back where the emails resides in. Crypto security has been enhanced beyond what we may imagine, so we should not feel so relaxed and not convinced to not trust the process of it. The brain behind it has even made provision for stronger security which makes it even more commendable in the long use of it.
