The phishing email comes across a bit too amateur. Specifically the inclusion of:
"we kindly ask that you complete this update your earliest convenience".
The email was included here: https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/642adcaf364024654c71df23/...
From this article: https://www.aikido.dev/blog/npm-debug-and-chalk-packages-com...
Very amateur. Who would fall that, really? I can only suspect npm people who are used to unprofessional repo hosting practices.
Such a Two Factor Authentication update request would have needed a blog post first, to announce such a fishy request.
