15. What do you Mean by Phishing?
Phishing is now treated as a cyber-crime where the senders bear a legitimate identity ( ex- PayPal, eBay, friends or co-workers)they target you with an e-mail or phone call or a text message and convince you to click on the link. This artificial link carries you to a fake website and you provide your personal information there thinking it to be an original website. This way they get access to your accounts.
