What is Vishing? Part 3 of 6

Vishing, phishing, and smishing employ different types of communication, but their objectives are the same, which is to fraudulently take control of accounts and steal funds from unsuspecting individuals or businesses. 

The items listed below will outline the three (3) types of fraud: 

  • Vishing: Phone call scams that pressure victims to verbally share sensitive and confidential information. 
  • Phishing: Email scams that lure victims into clicking links that lead to deceptive websites or malware downloads. 
  • Smishing: Text message scams that prompt victims to click malicious links or visit fake websites. 

The use of scams and fraudulent activity is increasing by the day. As a result, individuals and businesses must continue to stay up to date on new scams, otherwise, a mistake can be very costly.
