In the context of computers, \“fishing\“ typically refers to phishing, a cybercrime where attackers impersonate legitimate entities to steal sensitive information like passwords, credit card details, or personal data. In India, this is a growing concern as digital adoption increases. Local products and services, such as those from banks, e-commerce platforms like Flipkart and Amazon India, or government portals, are often targeted. Phishing attacks may involve fake emails, messages, or websites that mimic trusted Indian brands, tricking users into revealing confidential data. To stay safe, always verify the sender\“s authenticity, avoid clicking suspicious links, and use security features provided by Indian apps and services. |
