Phishing is the buzzword in everyone’s mouth. As the most common method of cyber-threat, it’s a way of playing on victims’ emotions to coerce them into disclosing sensitive data.
While over 90% of cyberattacks begin with a phishing email, that is not the only way that phishers reach out to their victims. Since our digital messages have expanded far beyond our electronic inboxes, so too have phishers found other avenues for reaching out to victims and extorting money and personal information from them.
