Voice phishing, or vishing, is a type of phishing attack conducted over the phone, where attackers impersonate trusted entities to trick individuals into providing sensitive information.
• Used by attackers to steal financial information, such as credit card numbers or bank account details, by posing as bank representatives or service providers.• Employed in social engineering attacks where attackers pretend to be technical support or government agencies.
Attackers call victims, impersonating trusted organizations or individuals, to persuade them to provide personal or financial information over the phone.
Common signs include unsolicited calls asking for sensitive information, urgent requests for financial details, and calls from unfamiliar numbers.
Individuals should avoid providing sensitive information over the phone unless they can independently verify the caller’s identity and use caution with unsolicited calls.
