If people haven’t looked at their scores in months they often forget what email address they used or their password. The system disables accounts after 5-7 failed attempts to stop brute-force attacks. If you block third-party cookies or have a strong ad blocker, your browser’s privacy settings can hinder you from logging in. Changing your phone number or SMS delays can also create issues. It also verifies your identity before allowing access to sensitive actions.
