What is smishing ??


Answer :-


Smishing is a cyber crime in which our vital person information can be in danger of being stolen .

➡Smishing is similar to phishing .

It involves a text or message in the S.M.S .

The message forces us to enter any personal information .

Then , the information is taken immediately by the source.

➡Hence our privacy is endangered and vital information is stolen.

The message may also contain a link to some unknown websites.

➡These are the common characteristics of smishing .


Precautions :


➡The best way to avoid smishing is not to reply to messages of unknown senders .

➡We should not enter any personal information to any unknown messages too.

➡The messages having links should be of trustworthy sources only otherwise we should not click the link.
