Phishing is the fraudulent,social engineering process of
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.
infamous episodes of phishing occurred post 9/11 in USA
disguised as mail from many institutions asking them to
authenticate their details of different accounts or
threatening them with legal actions.
