Masquerade is becoming a popular game online.
Scam artists are getting smart, and you've got to be smarter. Wells
Fargo, eBay, and Bank of America have all had problems with criminals
sending out emails masquerading as coming from the company. They hope
clueless users will click from the email to a bogus web site and enter
in critical data like SSNs, passwords, and account numbers. The payoff
is that the criminals capture all the data and use it for their purposes.
Very ugly. Learn how to avoid this criminal
trick.
