Phishing

Phishing is a type of social engineering attack where malicious actors attempt to deceive individuals into revealing sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords, credit card details, or other personal data. This is often done by disguising oneself as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication, like an email, message, or website, to trick the recipient into clicking a malicious link or providing the requested information. The goal is to steal data or install malware on the victim's device.
