trying to extract information form a victim, like user names
passwords or even account or credit card details through
the medium of email or instant messaging. Phishing mails are
disguised to appear as if from a legitimate institutions
like pay-pal rapid share or any banks giving them fake links
and asking them to confirm some details at that site and
thereby trapping unsuspecting victims.
