Hi. If there's something unusual about your sign in or recent activity, we'll ask you to go through another verification step after you've entered the correct password. This helps protect your account from unauthorized access. You may be prompted to get a verification code on your AOL app, recovery phone number, or recovery email address for any of the following reasons:
AOL notices suspicious account activity.
You're using an unfamiliar browser or device.
You're traveling away from your usual location.
You sign in while using a VPN or a proxy server.
You've logged in with a private or incognito window.
There are many attempts to sign in with incorrect passwords.
The "First time signing in from this device" message appears.
You've cleared your browser history or data cache including cookies.
We are sorry for the inconvenience this is causing you! If you need additional help, please contact us on Twitter at @AOLSupportHelp or on Facebook at our AOL Customer Care page. If you do not have a social media account, we are available at help.aol.com.
Thank you,
AOL team

Same for me. It started about a week ago, and every time I try to sign in I get the 'unusual activity' message. I wonder how many more people are experiencing the same problem and whether it will ever be fixed. It's so annoying that I can't sign in without the rigmarole of number codes being sent to my phone.

I use a VPN. Each new logon to AOL requires a text message to my phone for a code. I already have a screen name and password. That is enough security. AOL is really becoming annoying, not user friendly and a pleasure like it was 6 months ago. Read your **** feedback! Learn from Bud Lite.
