Phishing Scams Amazingly Effective
Phishing Scams Amazingly Effective
07/28/2004 04:53 PMAn anti-spam company showed a bunch of emails to people to see if they
could spot the phishing scam emails from the legitimate emails and
discovered that an awful lot of people are easily fooled.
28% of the time, people
thought scam emails were legit. No wonder they're so popular
these days. The study also turned up that there are problems with
false negatives as well. A large number of perfectly legitimate
emails are now being dismissed as fraudulent by users who are too
weary of phishing scams. This, obviously, can be quite troublesome
for companies who need a legitimate way to contact their customers.
The answer seems pretty simple: don't put URLs in emails any more. If
you need someone to check their account, tell them to go to your
webpage and login, and have a clear splash page that details the
issue. Then, convince people not to click on emails in these
messages.
