phishing

Hi friend,

You must have already heard of Phishing but do you really know what Phishing means?   Well, guess what, you may not know what it means but you may have fallen prey on it.

I’ve checked with my ever-trusted friend, Wikipedia, and this is how he defined phishing “[it] is the criminally fraudulent process of attempting to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords and credit card details by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.”

Criminals use fraudulent e-mails, Web sites and even instant messaging as bait into luring consumers to enter their personal details such as their Social Security numbers or account passwords at a fraud website that looks almost identical to the genuine website. Lots and lots of people have been victimized by these phishing attacks and still counting. With the lack of awareness and accurate security measures, no wonder the number of phishing incidents is growing outrageous.

And because we care about you, your safety and your identity, we are giving you a tip on how to save yourself from being victimized.
