Phishing
A fraudulent practice of sending communications, often disguised as coming from a trustworthy source, to trick people into revealing sensitive information like passwords or bank details.
Phishing typically involves fake emails, messages, or websites designed to look legitimate, tricking victims into entering login credentials, OTPs, or card details, which are then used to commit financial fraud.
Such conduct is prosecuted as cheating and identity theft under the IT Act and general criminal law, and victims of resulting financial fraud should report promptly to improve the chance of recovering funds through banking channels.
