Yup. The teaser mentioned only a phone number. But for curiosity’s sake, I just tried the kiosk. Once you get past that first prompt, it wants your ID and SSN. Um, no thanks. Their markup makes even Coinbase look cheap.
You have to do the KYC online before you buy it. Then you go to the kiosk, put your money in, and it prints you a coupon with a code on it. You go home, input the code into your account, and the crypto shows up.
The instructions I saw only mentioned entering a phone number. But I haven’t used the machine yet. I’ll have to see if fees are more reasonable for Litecoin or one of the other alts. The only other kiosk I’ve ever used was a few years ago in Las Vegas; that one was KYC, wanting a scan of your driver’s license.

Doesnt sound like a winner to me.

So what happens when someone puts in a false phone number?

I was planning on using @amr008's number.
