Phishing Law

Phishing law refers to legal regulations aimed at combating phishing scams, which are deceptive attempts to obtain sensitive information, like passwords or credit card details, by pretending to be a trustworthy entity. These laws help protect individuals and organizations from fraud by making it illegal to impersonate someone online with the intent to deceive. Offenders can face severe penalties, including fines and imprisonment. Governments and organizations also implement cybersecurity policies to educate the public about recognizing and avoiding phishing attempts, fostering a safer online environment.
