Talking to anyone and particularly a woman at that time would be a fap block. I think the real way to make more sales is to have the whole process as painless and as streamlined as possible for the end user so he buys while still in the mood.

Have to wait and see how it is implemented, as that will be what makes it work or not.
Phone verification doesn't need to be that involved...

customer submits info
payment processor sends unique code via sms
customer enter's code
transaction approved (if no other sec flags are hit)

Could be done very similarly with an automated (robot) call...

customer submits info
payment processor calls phone and automated system gives unique code
customer enter's code
transaction approved (if no other sec flags are hit)

Sure, it would make a few ways upon initial implementation but if it became the norm then it would work fine...
