Nah, they capture the code with the fake login site then immediately enter it into the client. That's how they login.If they hit the scammers website from their computer, the scammers could have gotten their IP. Just, nothing they could really do with their IP lol.
Secondly, pretty sure a security token on the account would have helped the initial character loss, as it's required to use the token to login to the game and get access to the character. A note, there are already plenty of ways to get around two-factor authentication, decent hackers get by it with fair ease. However, anyone with those skills aren't going to give 2 f's about someones final fantasy character.
2fa won't help you if you give them the code lol.
