Phishing
There's a new type of Internet piracy called "phishing." It's pronounced
"fishing," and that's exactly what these thieves are doing: "fishing" for
your personal financial information. What they want are account numbers,
passwords, Social Security numbers, and other confidential information
that they can use to loot your checking account or run up bills on your
credit cards.
In the worst case, you could find yourself a victim of identity theft.
With the sensitive information obtained from a successful phishing scam,
these thieves can take out loans or obtain credit cards and even driver's
licenses in your name. They can do damage to your financial history and
personal reputation that can take years to unravel. But if you
understand how phishing works and how to protect yourself, you can help
stop this crime.

card numbers, PINs (personal identification numbers), passwords and
other personal information.
