Phishing #scams work through the creation of #fraud #websites that are
carefully designed to resemble those of popular financial institutions. For
instance, you might one day suddenly receive an e-mail from your local bank
stating that your account has been suspended and they would also provide a link
below to help you reactivate your account. When you click on the link, it would
direct you to fraud websites that looks just like your local bank in terms of
its design. And if you end up typing your login details in the columns
provided, your account ends up being compromised. Cyber criminals now can use
your log in details to make payments from your account without your knowledge.
You can spot these fraud websites by simply looking at the URL extension on
your browser. http://goo.gl/A9vMcJ
