What is a Man-in-the-Middle Phishing attack?
“Man-in-the-Middle” Phishing attacks happen in two ways: 1. Phishers create complex, but identical sites of a bank or institution. The sites are pre-built and allow for quick deployment of the phishing site on the Internet. 2. Phishers plant a Trojan into the victim’s machine while the victim is communicating with his bank. The Trojan then captures the confidential data in real time.
