You receive a call on your phone.
The caller says they're from your bank and they're calling about a suspected fraud.

"Oh yeah," you think. Obvious scam, right?

The caller says "I'll send you an in-app notification to prove I'm calling from your bank."

Your phone buzzes. You tap the notification This is what you see.

Still think it is a scam?

@Edent most banks are absolutely terrible at wording their SMS confirmation messages.

I've had genuine incoming "give us your details first to pass security" calls recently and it's frustrating. They follow it up with a generic code via SMS, which is the same one they use if you call them so the whole process is totally vulnerable to a MITM attack.

If I didn't have a need to make timely progress with something I'd start taking their "NEVER SHARE YOUR VERIFICATION CODE" message literally.

Why, Shelly, why?
This is L/N in, and two live outputs O/O. So you cannot easily wire this in-line. You either need two neutral wires in one screw terminal or a wago block for the neutral.
They so easily could have made it N/N/L/gap/O instead, allowing simple in-line wiring.

Update: Easy, N is almost double the heat inside of the device. Sorry but in such small size we didn't want it. Double out allow to use single device in double socket which is most useful than second N.

@revk isn't it intended for use where the N terminal of the load is nearby, so you can run an extra wire from that?
