PhishingIn the field of computer security, phishing is the criminally fraudulent process of attempting to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords and credit card details by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.

How is it Exactly Done ?

A thing a Hacker Needs-A Software known as Super Phisher.

A Free Web Hosting site for uploading the fake website.

110mb.com

My3gb.com

The Real Process!!

The Hacker copies the URL (Uniform Resource Locator ) Of a website eg.www.gmail.co.in , www.yahoo.co.in

And puts it in the software Url space

Once the fake page is build , it appears in the folder where the software is installed, or kept .

The Hacker thus creates a fake account in the free uploading website.

And he uploads the files in the file manager.

That’s it the hacker has the email id & Password & he is totally in control of the account!!

This Process can be done with any networking site .But these types of links cannot be sent through Facebook.This is what happens when you try to send this phishing link.

So better think twice before clicking on a link!!
