Phishing/Scam

Phishing is a deceptive cyberattack where malicious actors impersonate trusted entities, such as banks or companies, to trick individuals into revealing sensitive information like login credentials, financial details, or personal data. These attacks often use emails, messages, or fake websites to appear legitimate and urgent, compelling victims to act without caution.

Scams, on the other hand, are broader fraudulent schemes designed to manipulate individuals for financial gain or personal information. Scammers use various tactics, including fake offers, tech support fraud, or online shopping traps, to exploit trust and vulnerability.

Both phishing and scams are significant threats in today’s digital world, aiming to compromise security, steal data, or cause financial harm.
