                               How does phishing work?

 In simple words, phishing is a process of creating a duplicate copy of the reputed website’s page with the intention of stealing user’s password, or other sensitive information like credit card details. In our topic, it means creating a page which perfectly looks like FB login page but in a different URL like fakerbook.com, or faecbook.com, or any URL that pretends to be legit. When a user lands on such a page, he/she may think that is the real Facebook login page, asking him/her to provide his/her username and password. So, the people who do not find phishing page suspicious are going to enter their username & password. The password information will be sent to the hacker who created the phishing page. At the same time, the victim gets redirected to original FB page.

Example: Ali is a programmer. He creates an FB login page with some scripts that enable him to get the username and password information. Ali puts this fake login page in https://www.facebouk.com/make-money-online-tricks. Rishi is a friend of Ali. Ali sends a message to Rishi, “Hey Rishi, I have found a free trick to make money online, you should definitely take a look at https://www.facebouk.com/make-money-online-tricks-free”. Rishi navigates to the link and see a FB login page. As usual,Rishi enters his username and password on it.

The username and password of Rishi is sent to Ali and Rishi is redirected to a money making tips page https://www.facebouk.com/make-money-online-tricks-tips-free.html. That’s all; Rishi’s Facebook account is hacked.

Please note that phishing is done by a third person through emails; that is how it happens most of the time. So always beware of phishing emails, else you may lose your Facebook account, or credit card details, or any other sensitive data.

       How can you protect yourself against online FB phishing

Hackers can reach you in many ways; email, personal messages, FB messages, website ads etc. Clicking any links from these messages will lead you to a FB login page. Whenever you find an FB login page, you should note only one thing which is URL. Because nobody can spoof/use Facebook URL except when there are some XSS zero-day vulnerabilities, but that’s very rare.

1.      What is the URL you see in browser address bar?

2.      Is that really https://www.facebook.com/ (Trailing slash is very important since it is the only separator in Google chrome to distinguish domain and subdomain. Check out the below examples to know the difference)?

3.      Is there a green color secure symbol (HTTPS) provided in the address bar?

Bearing these questions in mind should prevent you from the hacking of online phishing pages. Also, see the below examples of phishing pages.

Most of the people won’t suspect this page (snapshot given above) since there is an https prefix with a green color secure icon and also there is no mistake in www.facebook.com. But, this is a phishing page. How? Note the URL correctly. It is https://www.facebook.com.infoknown.com. So, www.facebook.com is a sub-domain of infoknown.com. Google Chrome does not differentiate the sub-domain and domain, unlike Firefox does.

One can obtain SSL Certificates (HTTPS) from many online vendors. A few vendors give SSL Certificate for Free for 1 year. It is not a big deal for a novice to create a perfect phishing page like the one given above. So, beware of it.
