Some of the ingredients: #Outlook and its habit of hiding important information from the user and missing #2FA which is phishing-resistant.
Use #FIDO2 with hardware tokens if possible (#Passkeys without FIDO2 HW tokens are NOT phishing-resistant due to the possibility of being able to trick users with credential transfers: https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.07380) and avoid Outlook (or #Microsoft) whenever possible.
Further learning: it could happen to the best of us! Don't be ashamed, try to minimize risks and be open about your mistakes.
Note: any 2FA is better than no 2FA at all.
