The Art of the Phish

Description

At some point, we've all been the target of a phishing scam—the suspicious emails that appear to be from a known sender but in actuality come from a scammer requesting that you click a link, open an attachment, or provide personal information. If fallen for, these emails give the scammer unwanted access to private information. While some of these scams are easily identified, the art of phishing continues to evolve. With the multitude of devices becoming more and more prevalent, the risk of falling victim to a phishing scam is increasing.
