Common ways of phishing

There are many common ways of phishing. Everyone must be vigilant and reduce personal losses. Here are a few of them, and everyone should sound the safety alarm.

1. Send e-mail to lure users into a trap with false information.

criminals send a large number of fraudulent e-mails. Most of the e-mails entice users to fill in their financial account numbers and passwords by winning prizes, consulting, reconciliation, etc., or require recipients to log on to a webpage for various urgent reasons to submit information such as user name, password, ID number, credit card number, etc., and then steal users' funds.

2. Set up a fake website to defraud the user's account password and commit theft.

criminals set up websites whose domain names and web pages are very similar to those of real online banking systems and online securities trading platforms, so as to lure deceived people into inputting information such as account numbers and passwords, and then steal users' funds.

3. Fraud by using false e-commerce.

criminals publish false information on well-known e-commerce websites, sell goods in the names of so-called "ultra-low price", "duty-free", "smuggled goods" and "charity sale", and ask the deceived person to pay the payment in advance to achieve the purpose of fraud.

4. using trojan horse and hacker technology to steal user information.

criminals hide "Trojan horse" programs in e-mails or websites. When conducting online transactions on computers infected with "Trojan horse", the "Trojan horse" programs obtain user accounts and passwords by keyboard recording.

5. Website fraud.

The website addresses of fraudulent websites designed by criminals are very similar to those of regular websites, and there is often only one letter difference, so it is difficult to find them without careful identification. When users log on to fake websites for fund operation, their financial information will be leaked.
