Attacks begin when users are lured into “visiting suspicious websites or click on phishing links that download malicious software onto their computer.”

After reading various news amd stories about phishing, I no longer think anyone is really "too smart to be phished". Not the matter of "If", but "Under what circumstances".

congrats! you're the first person I've seen actually get what "phishing" means.

every fish can be caught, they react on instinct. same for people and links. they were made to be clicked so we instinctually click them.
