Authenticator sold out?

Q u o t e:
OK, so you guys are having problems with account theft, and yet you have been sold out of authenticators for like two weeks. Get your act togethor. I need to buy one but I can’t.

First, I'd like to applaud your decision to purchase an Authenticator. While I wish they were in stock just as much as you do, they are purchased from a third party vendor. As a result, we only have the ability to make more available for sale when they are first made available to us.

In the meantime, we do restock regularly, and it's probably a good idea to continue checking the store in the meantime. It's also possible that your mobile device might be compatible with our Mobile Authenticator, and that could prove to be a viable alternative. I happen to use one myself:

Q u o t e:

My account has also been compromised so I really want an authenticator now. I think they might be sold out because so much people are getting hacked and hackers themselves attach authenticators to accounts they steal. Everyone is buying authenticators for good and evil uses. =(

Actually, the Authenticators that are applied maliciously tend to be those of the Mobile variety, alas.
