Phishing is a type of online scam where someone pretends to be a trusted person or company to trick you into giving away personal information like passwords, credit card numbers, or other sensitive details. Once they've got that, they can take control of your bank account, spend money with your credit card, or even completely steal your identity.
For example:
You might get an email that looks like it’s from your bank asking you to "confirm" your account by clicking a link.
A text message might say you’ve won a prize and need to enter personal information to claim it.
The goal is to steal your information or money. Always double-check who is contacting you before clicking links or sharing any details. Instead of clicking on links, go to the website of the company and log in there. Never click on anything unless you're 100% certain of what you're doing.
Phishing doesn't attack only through emails. There's Vishing (voice) and Smishing (text messages), and even video calls that look like someone you know. With the current capabilities of Artificial Intelligence, scammers can scoop up voice, video, and all of the information about you, your family, and friends that have been shared on social media. The scammers only need a few seconds of someone's voice or video to create an attack that looks and sounds exactly like someone you know.
Wouldn't it be great if you had an expert to help you identify the scam and take the necessary steps to protect yourself and your loved ones? An expert that was available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? Instead of having to call a friend or family member, you could simply check with a completely trustworthy and non-judgemental expert that would give you the best possible advice.
