Abstract

The incidence of phishing, a form of internet fraud, has increased dramatically since 2003. Identity thieves searching for vulnerabilities in internet security have realized that customers are the weak link. Using mass e-mailings and websites purporting to be those of well-known and trusted corporations, “phishers” trick customers into revealing personal and financial information.
