Phishing
 

Phishing: A clever way to trick someone to gain information to one's advantage.

Phishing Site: A site with a main purpose to steal passwords, credit card info, etc.

You should always look out for Phishing sites. NEVER enter the same password for everything. Also, look at the URL at the top of each page to confirm it's not a copy of amazon or something.

Phishing sites could be a replica of Facebook or your Bank Account. Of course, you can't log into a copied site because they don't know they database info.

You want to know how PoeticFolly got his Graalians and Email account lost? He was phished by someone on this site.

If you've ever Phished, just remember, it's illegal and if you make yourself known, the FBI will be after you.

Yep. Finaly somebody who knows what phishing really is and not just a stupid kid playing with it.

Teach us, Paul Frank, teach us.

no.

I was being sarcastic.
As he is trying to show us how pro of a hacker he is while the only thing he can do is "hack" in Deus Ex Human Revolution.

Phishing isn't hacking at all.

Sigh

Phishing isn't hacking, it's "scamming" in graal terms.

People could "scam" your password, which sums up the OP.

You should spend less time acting like an anon member and more time learning to spell... *finally

Anon types perfectly and in three seconds bexuase they have been trained in the 4rT 0f t3h h4k3Z
But yeah, used to do something like this and phishing people's MC accounts. Then I hacked their email because if people are ******ed enough to believe a "Minecraft Premium Duplicator", they're stupid enough to use the same pw for their email.

If a person supposedly from 'microsoft' calls you up, and starts asking you stuff. Go along with it and pretend your stupid and then say. "No mine says mac" lol

Ugh, someone fell for this that was one of my friends on facebook. Now everywhere I look on facebook it's someones account posting 'lol go to ----- and sign up for your free ipad!'.

You know you can report a friend's account as compromised, right?

Nope, only made my account a few days ago x.x

Oh, in that case it may be a case of not being compromised, but that they gave a ****ty app full privileges. Facebook is stupid, and every single app ever demands you give it full privileges to use, and Facebook thinks that's an okay sort of thing so people end up just doing it to do anything... yet when you do that you give an app full access to not only all your information but even letting it post on your wall and such.
