    Its not Man-in-the-Middle. MitM's is when someone intercepts the trusted communication between 2 parties and then injects, removes, or otherwise takes over the entire message and then forwards the new 'edited' message forward to the original recipient. Example of an MitM is a hacker intercepts a communication for a purchase, so they take out the original routing and bank information and inject financial information for an account of their choosing, then forward the message to the recipient. They get it and it still looks like the original email and continue with their transaction.

    Finally, someone realizes my paranoia, social anxiety, and trust issues are GENUINELY USEFUL SKILLSETS in today's world. 1. They ARE out to get you. It doesn't matter if they aren't at the moment, its coming. 2. It doesn't matter that you are home alone, live alone, and no one else has a key to your house... lock the bathroom door! 3. Never tell anyone something you aren't comfortable letting everyone know. 4. Never share something someone else shared with you. No one else needs to know what secrets you know. 5. Everything is a weapon given enough motivation and creativity. Livin' like a rogue, every day of my life.

    A good way to avoid getting phished is just, avoid clicking on any embedded link being sent via email in general. Lots of trusted banks nowadays literally just tell you "Go to our website and log-in normally to your account" and specifically avoid sending specific links for that reason. Or if you're unsure, just pick up the phone and call your bank's hotline and see what's up. Can't really fall for an impersonator if you're the one initiating the call.

A sad part of me thinks based on the pitch of her voice she's rather young and possibly being forced to do it in human trafficking, the strict script she uses also makes me think this.

    Make sure to report this, you could be this girl's only hope. Call the authorities and ask if they can set up a "set-up" to catch the scammers. If not, always answer her and attempt to discreetly let her know that you're trying to help and see if you can ask her any questions/etc that give you evidence/information that can help. Make sure to record any calls you get (it's easy, look it up). Again, the best route would be to call the FBI/local authorities and let them know, but please be smart with what you do, but don't sit by and do nothing. Let me know if I can help, you could very well save a girl's life here mate. Get on it.

    This is actually perfect because my college recently got two different phishing scams going around. As a programming major and having to take networking classes I thought it was great when in the email they said the "attack" came from IP 24.176.229.15 (where the largest an ip can go is 225) then the one last week was even better it was an IP 1,541,605,760 (yes almost all those numbers are too large, it was written with commas, and it is basicaly impossible to ever see an IP address start with 1) Also small note right off the bat you called phishing a man in the middle attack. Man in the middle is just wire tapping so a man in the middle is like a skimmer and phishing is like building your own store that just looks like another store.

    One time, my dad got a phone call from some kind of phishing attack, which he realized pretty quickly. He has worked in IT / Comp Sci for decades, and is generally very privacy-focused and cautious (and paranoid, which helps in these cases). He managed to turn the whole thing around on the guy and claim that he was actually calling them (since often with these types of scam / telemarketing calls, what happens is a robo-dialer calls people, and if someone picks up, that then calls the human on the other end in a call center (rather than people actually dialing everyone manually). He convinced this guy that he worked in their company in HR or IT or something else, and managed to get this guy to tell him some personal / private information. In my memory, it was a social security number, but I'm not a hundred percent sure. He hung up and shouted "Yes!" and I went over and asked what happened. He explained, and had written down the number on a sticky note. He was thrilled and kind of shocked that it worked. Who knows if the guy actually gave him real info, or was just playing along, but it was a really funny experience. I asked what he was going to do with the info and he just destroyed it, but it was the sentiment that counts.

She showed the magazine that she had sent the check, and it had been cashed. It turns out that, somehow, a scam company using the same letterhead, etc, had sent renewal notices right around the same time, and she had sent the check to this company instead. Just something to watch out for.

    Here's my interesting (sort of) phishing story: I was contacted by someone claiming to be working with the Hands and Feet Foundation, which is a real charity focused on helping children in need. They said that they were working on a big project to spread awareness about the cause, asked if I wanted to help out, and stated that it wouldn't cost any money. So, of course I agreed, since the charity was legitimate. Then this person proceeded to ask me to send him pictures of my hands and, more importantly, feet (you can probably see where this is going). Obviously, this was strange to me, so I contacted the charity and they said they had nothing to do with this and that I should stay away from this person. So, the moral of the story is: scams aren't always about getting money, sometimes they're about getting pictures of women's feet.

    Back in the 90's when I was still in school, I learned a lot about phreaking. Phishing was alive and well in the 90's and was often used in conjunction with phreaking, likely explaining the naming convention. Phishing used to be done via phone mostly, calling people impersonating a company - or more commonly, with a target in mind, calling a company and impersonating as your target to get information out of the representative on the other end. I recall one writing detailing being able to call up banks or utilities, impersonating a relative of a target. It took very little information to report the target as deceased, opening up the door for information and some trolling - such as turning off the electricity or closing bank accounts.

    Thank you thank you thank you for this video. I'm a delivery driver for Doordash, a company that delivers food to people from restaurants that normally don't deliver. This morning I got an order for just a hot tea from Wendy's, so I decided to take it. While I was on my way to Wendy's, I got a call from a supposed Doordash hq employee. He just basically told me that the customer cancelled the order, oh and by the way I also qualify for a $200 dollar driver bonus, which was a tiny red flag. I just had to confirm my phone number, which then they sent a text to which I had to reply with my Doordash email and password, that was a major red flag. I remembered the rule from this video that if they contact you first, don't give any info. I muted the call and looked up the situation on Google and the same thing happened to other people; they get an order for something small and then get a suspicious phone call. I immediately hung up, and he called back right away and then I just told him "look I have another order, I'll call you later " which I never did. Point is, without this video I probably would have walked into the trap.. thanks guys.

    I was victim to a 'fishing' scam a few months ago when I received a sms from 'dhl' or 'tnt' asking me to call a number to set a delivery date. The call (a 06 number) turned out to be a paid call. I realized it quickly but it still cost me 2€... And I'm a nerd, I know about these things...

    I can't wait for the follow up episode where you showed that you used the spoofing test thing to link this episode. I mean, its gotta be no coincidence that you did a video on phishing and on the same day I got an email from scam stuff (like I normally do) except it was about a normal episode (which is weird in my experience) nor did it go to the folder I use for promotions and sales. Though, tbh, I looked at the email, did all the things you said, and saw the links went to scam stuff so *shrug.* I'm going to be part of your statistic even though I knew it was a scam. I was expecting a link going to an unlisted page or something going, "OI YOU JUST GOT PHISHED! Go to our new video on phishing to see how you done goofed..." Either that or I actually just got hacked and I'm screwed.

    A buddy of mine got Wells Fargo'd when we we're driving to lunch one day. Unfortunately, I only caught that it was a scam after he had entered his info since I know where he actually does his banking. Lucky, he doesn't use WF and is just techno-illiterate but unlucky is that they can still sell that email and password so he had to change both of them and drop that email account for anything important.

    I remember a few years ago, phishing links were sent to many MANY accounts on steam. There was a time where lots of people who owned massive inventories for different games like team fortress 2, dota 2, csgo, etc. were sent these links through people in their friends lists or through friend requests and ended up losing all their items. For these people who had these massive expensive inventories, they lost thousands of dollars worth of stuff because of it, because these in-game items are infact worth real world money. Unusual tf2 cosmetics, csgo knives, and extremely rare dota skins were sold on the steam market and even on websites made for trading these items for either actual money or in-game currency, but currency regardless. Because of all of these phishing links being sent to people on steam giving access to their accounts, eventually steam had to make a 2 way protection service for their users. You HAD to have the steam app on your smartphone to be given the code to log in and it's completely random and only exists for 30 seconds, and it also gives you notifications for trade requests. The reason for this to be created was because for those people to take the items from accounts, they still need to initiate a trade, and to login, they need to have access to the users code which only can be accessed through one smartphone at a time.

    Sure those exist, but it's very easy to get caught up in something like this. Picture an email that looks exactly like paypal or amazon or something that you probably already get all the time and they're asking you to click a link. Nothing looks out of the ordinary, so you click it and bam, you get caught. Or someone needs your for verification purposes, a lot of---well every business basically, asks for this stuff. Depending on what it is that's all they need. It's not a sign of intelligence or naivety or anything to fall for something. Just like the story on reddit they talked about, the person was given verification codes to read out, while in that call the perpetrator had sent instructions to reset their account credentials and made them send $1000 to some person. It was only later they realized that the numbers were codes, the victim thought it was literally verification numbers.

    A lot of banks and organisations make it clear that they will never expect you to click on a link in one of their emails and/or that they will never email you asking for sensitive information. I routinely get emails from the Inland Revenue Department saying "you have a notification/letter/message" and instructing me to log in using their secure server. The only things that show up as links in the emails are my own address (where it says "this has been sent to .... because this is the address you have recorded as your contact address") and the email address to which I should report any suspected phishing attacks. Both of these occur in their warning about phishing scams. In order to view the message, I need to go to another tab, type in the address for IRD's secure login server then enter my username and password - and _this_ just to read a *letter* from them. They make it pointedly clear that *under no circumstances* will they ever contact you with "click on this link to amend your details" in the message. If there were ever a problem, they would email me and tell me to contact them through the *proper* channels.

    Another important thing to look out for that can be telling is understanding what they're asking of you. The vast majority of the time a bank or similar trusted entity won't be asking for anything that can allow them to get money from you. If your bank wanted to rob you, they wouldn't have to ask; they already have your money. If your bank routinely asks you for sensitive information, switch banks. Take a fraud detection alert for example: the bank will simply ask you if you made the charges and cancel your card if not. A third party wouldn't be able to access your funds using such information. They'll never ask you for your password, and shouldn't need any sensitive PII, and the only action being taken is a potential freeze on your card/account. If you're being asked to provide information that would allow someone to access your money/property or otherwise take over an account of yours, it's almost certainly a phishing attempt. In this case, contact the involved company directly without using any links or phone numbers from the email you got but instead looking up the contact info yourself and verify the suggested action first. I've used banks as an example here but this info goes for any trusted entity. Source: Have been trained and worked in network security and development of security software for several years.

    One of the best attackers I've seen was a girl at the bar where I work. Diabolical. She comes in dressed up and looking super hot, hitting on a few guys and since shes wearing a skimpy dress she says "I don't have my phone, let me put my number in yours and add my snapchat." or whatever... She then used their phones and Venmo'ed and Apple Pay'ed herself thousands of dollars over the course of a weekend. Apparently she made out with 5 figures money and just disappeared. I don't think the police caught her because they came back over and over for info and a bunch of the rich guys were too embarrassed to come forward, some of the more drunk guys were too drunk, and the rest barely bothered to look at her face or ask her name and even if they did she probably wore a wig and used a fake name. She is a fucking genius (not that I condone it.), and her clever use of modern technology and manipulation was pretty amazing. From what I gather she used her apple watch for the transactions and even went so far as to pretend to take pictures with the guys by tapping the flashlight on and off and pretending to go through the pictures and edit them, or she pretended to try to find her snapchat or whatever... stuff that takes longer than adding a number, which is clever. She just went from group to group, guy to guy, and phone to phone. People... LOCK YOUR PHONES UP! Add codes or fingerprints to your financial shit! How did she even find that many guys with money apps with no security!? Edit: I just realized I have my Samsung Pay setup with no security either... face. fucking. palm. Uggghh.. I'm adding fingerprint security to it. Damn. She could've gotten me if I weren't socially awkward and grey-sexual as hell. Jeez. Lock your shit up!
