Aryuyu

2 factor authentication for people - verify your contacts are who they say they are with ARYUYU

ARYUYU helps you identify when a scammer or other party is impersonating one of your contacts.

By impersonating you using an AI copy of your voice, and talking about things you have posted on social media, scammers can be very convincing. They might pretend that you need money due to an accident, or make fake demands. They only need to be convincing for a few minutes to get a panicked loved one to send them money.

Here's how to use ARYUYU:

- You add a contact to the ARYUYU app on your phone
- A QR is displayed. Your contact should then scan this QR with the authenticator app on their phone.
- Later, if you are suspicious that someone is impersonating your contact (online, via text, or in a voice or video call), you can ask them to provide the 6 digit code displayed in the authenticator app from their phone.
- If they are unable to provide the correct code, you can investigate further and decide on the next action to take.

Troubleshooting:

- Ensure the time is correct on both devices
- Ensure the time zone is correct on both devices
- Codes expire - try getting a fresh code from your contact before assuming the worst!

ARYUYU works with any authenticator app that supports the TOTP standard, including Google Authenticator, Authy, and Microsoft Authenticator.
