Want to play a fun prank on an Azure admin you know?
1. Create an account in your own tenant, configure SMS MFA w your target's phone.
2. Log in, which sends an SMS.
3. Sit back and watch them as they try to figure out which account is compromised!
4. Repeat login until they've gone completely mad.
Microsoft MFA SMS messages don't say what account they are for. Great design.
