According to dictionary.com the meaning of phishing pages is “to try to
obtain confidential information from internet user typically by sending
an email that looks as it is by a legitimate organization, but contains
a link that tricks the user to a fake website that replicates the real
one”
I will not talk on this topic that much, but will simply give you an example about the phishing page.
* Created By Hackers
* Using HTML, Javascript, CSS, PHP and other web languages
* Tricks you By creating Fake Web Page.
Like I remember when I got trapped via Phishing page on Facebook, there
was a link named as “Justin Beiber Kissing Selena Gomez” I was like
WOW! I should check on it, then what! I clicked on it, fake web
page asking me to re-enter email and password.
I did what they
ask, but then I notice the fake domain, it was like
facebook88.something.com, I was like Oh My God it’s a trap :P I changed
password then.
The funny thing was, that trap was made by my nearest and dearest friend and Co-Admin of this website, Sir RJ Wisler. I know how to create phishing page, but cannot tell you, Its illegal :)
Ways to reduce The Risk Of Being Trapped: Note: These rules are not only for Facebook, it also applies in sites like Ebay and other social network.
** Do not click on doubtful links, Like “John Cena Was Found Dead” “Etc Sex Tape” etc. etc.
** If you have clicked the link, and It is asking your personal information, check the domain name in the address Bar.
** If the domain name is correct, then Try by typing wrong information.
I think this is enough for your understanding, Thank You
