    Don't panic! Losing access to your digital wallet can be stressful, but there are steps you can take to regain control. First, check if you have a backup of your Google Authenticator app. If you do, simply install the app on a new phone and restore your accounts. If you don't have a backup, you'll need to contact the support team of your digital wallet provider. They will guide you through the process of recovering your account, which may involve providing proof of ownership and going through additional security measures. Remember to keep your recovery codes or backup keys in a safe place in the future.

    Oh no, losing your phone with Google 2FA enabled can be a real headache! But fear not, there are ways to get back into your digital wallet. The first thing you should do is try to access your Google account from a trusted device or computer. Once you're in, go to your Google Account settings and disable 2FA for your digital wallet. This will allow you to log in without the need for the authentication code from your lost phone. After disabling 2FA, make sure to set up a new 2FA method, such as using an authenticator app on a new phone or getting a hardware security key.
