Security Alert
Phishing (also known as carding or spoofing) derives its name from the use of sophisticated lures (such as emails designed to look like they come from a real company or institution) that are created by unsavory characters to "fish" for users' financial information, credit card details, and passwords. Phishing is a form of online identity theft that employs both social engineering and technical tactics to steal consumers' personal identity data and financial account credentials.
