A fraudster directs users to malicious websites that aim to steal their confidential personal or financial information so the fraudster can use it to access accounts.

Vishing

Also known as voice phishing, a fraudster posing as a trusted person phones a company to ask them to take action that would enable unauthorised payments or reveal sensitive information.
