About phishing attacks

Source: DREAM Light

There is an example, and I do not remember it.

What is a phishing attack? It is actually very simple:

Someone emailed you: Give me 500 yuan to predict your future. You can be notified in advance that the rockets will win the game of the King and the rockets tomorrow!

Of course you don't believe it, but the Rockets really won the game the next day. You said: coincidence, coincidence.

After a few days, he emailed you again: Give me 500 faster, predict your future, and inform you in advance that the Lakers won the Rockets tomorrow.

You are a little curious, but you will never give him the money, but the Lakers won the game the next day. You said, eh? Is it a potential rule?

After a few days, he emailed you again: Give me 500 faster, predict your future, and you will be notified in advance that the Lakers will win the 7-6 match tomorrow.

You start to guess, is it true? But the Lakers won again the next day.

......

After several cycles, you finally want to predict your future. But when you remit the money, you don't get a reply!

This is because:

The first time I sent 8192 emails, half of which said that the king would win, and generally the rockets would win;

For the second time, only emails were sent to the 4096 people who said the Rockets won. For example, 2048 won the Lakers, and 2048 won the rockets;

For the third time, only emails were sent to the 2048 people who said the Lakers won, which were divided into 1024 million people who won the Lakers and 1024 million people who won the million people;
......

It is very likely that he will eventually cheat only 10 people, but this is enough!

So you can say that phishing attacks have no technical knowledge, but you may still be cheated.

In addition, there are many fishermen. Please be careful with the bait!
