When you say validate, would giving another US persons phone number work? I use this while living abroad for my US banking. It’s only solution I’ve found.

Absolutely not if that "other person" also have a google account.

This will associate the phone number permanently to your google account as well. And remove from the other account (and you cannot switch phones between accounts in the same 3month period... don't want know how I know this)

This is why relying on google for anything is shooting yourself in the face. Thanks for the information.

If they will enter the OTP for you, yes.
