Wana go "pharming"??
Q: what comes after phishing?
A: Pharming.
The 'experts" are gettin better by the days.. first they start "phishing" for victims by creating phony sites that looked similar to the genuine site, so that unsuspecting victims will unwittingly enter their sensitive information for the phisher's perusal.
Now they no longer go phishing for individual vicitims. It's quite a hassle.
Instead they redirect victims to their sites even though they keyed in the correct URL!!
wooah!
i cant imagine how serious this problem will become in the future when more and more pharming incidents happen. Will there come a day when we can no longer trust the sites we visit because we cant differentiate the fake sites from the real McCoy??!
