What Is Phishing?
A scam where the attacker impersonates a trusted entity to steal passwords or personal details.
Phishing usually happens via email, SMS, or fake websites that mimic a trusted service (e.g. a bank), aiming to trick the victim into entering passwords, card details, or other personal data. Checking the URL and sender carefully is the most effective defense.
