Phishing is a type of criminal activity where criminals send emails or create websites to trick people into providing sensitive personal information. This information, such as bank account numbers or passwords, is then used to steal money or goods from victims. Phishing works by fooling recipients into handing over important details which criminals use to impersonate legitimate organizations and scam people. To avoid being victims of phishing scams, people should be suspicious of unsolicited emails asking for personal information and verify website URLs before entering any details online.
