The new PokerStars security options are now operational for Beta testers. Well, at least the menus and the PIN are working, the RSA tokens haven't shipped yet. Here's how it works, with pictures.
This is the new 'Account' menu. Right now it only looks like this for logged-in Beta testers.
Here is the window that pops up when you choose the 'Login Settings...' option from the 'Account' menu.
If you choose 'Order Security Token', the window disappears and the Cashier, then FPP store pop up. The token isn't currently available in the store, so it just pops up to the default store category, 'Bonuses'.
If you choose 'Activate RSA Security Token', you get this:
Since we don't have our tokens yet I can't get beyond there right now.
If you click on 'Request Pokerstars PIN', you get:
Then you get the following email... obviously I have since changed my PIN. You get a new PIN every time you click the request button. I've done it a few times and it's damn fast.
If you check or uncheck the 'Enable PokerStars PIN' checkbox you get the following:
If you successfully enter your password/PIN to enable/disable your PIN, you get this email:
If you have the PIN enabled, the first step of logging in looks the same. But then there's a new, second step:
The numbers are in different places each time so if someone tracks the location of your mouse clicks, they still won't know which numbers you're clicking.
If you get to this second login step and have forgotten your PIN, you can click the 'Pokerstars PIN Recovery Service' words in blue, in which case this pops up:
And you get the Pokerstars PIN email with a new PIN.
That's everything until the RSA Tokens come out. Here's the email we got from Josem when he enabled everything, so you know what kind of stuff they want feedback on. These pictures basically give you the same experience a beta tester gets, and I'm sure Josem will read this thread, so here's your chance to contribute even if you missed out on the Beta.
