Overview: Criminals are using e-mails to lure victims onto fake Web sites. At these sites, the victims willingly enter their own credit card numbers, bank account numbers and other important information. This is called "Phishing." Spoofed e-mail addresses and Web sites that look identical to financial institutions, Internet service providers, and other businesses are being used. The government, police and banks are working together to combat this problem. But it's difficult to catch the crooks; many are overseas. The spoofed Web sites are active for a short time, then they disappear. This paper lists four steps to protect against the theft of your own personal information and your company's valuable business data.
