Password Phishing

What is Phishing? How it Works and How to Prevent it

Password phishing is when you get a fake email from a site which you have an account with. It will have some sense of urgency, claiming your account has been hacked or you need to change your password. They will often have a link to a fake site, where they’ll gather your login details. These are phishing attempts and should be avoided at all costs! To determine if an email is legit, check the link to make sure it actually goes to the correct site, and look out for typos or grammatical errors.
