What is Phishing?

Phishing is a form of cybercrime where malicious individuals try to obtain sensitive information, such as passwords, credit card numbers, or personal details, by pretending to be a trustworthy entity. This often happens through emails, messages, or websites that look legitimate but are designed to deceive people.

The goal of phishing is usually financial gain but can also be used for identity theft or other types of fraud. It is important to remain vigilant and never share personal information through unreliable channels.
