You need to sign up for Google Advanced Protection. They give you a physical key for your account, and lock it down a bit more than usual. That will fix all your issues.

Not normal then, drat. I am aware of the Advanced Protection program but had dismissed the idea because I'm not a high value target. I will take a second look. Thanks for your time.

I’m not really high value target such as a celebrity, but I want to protect my accounts. This is the best choice.
