Spoofing is the form of hacking. Today there are many examples of Spoofing happening, that we may have fallen into the trap of.

Most people now have Caller ID, now there are programs that make fake ID’s to show when that hackers calls your line. This makes you unable to know who is really calling you. Spoofing also can come through in the form of a text message. Most people think that their text messages are private, but they really are not (Moes, 2018). You could give all your information to the hacker by receiving a text.

Story of a Victim- that their Bank details has been stolen

I was the victim of a “spoof” email, allegedly from PayPal. The email was on PayPal stationery and asked me to update my account information. I did so, giving out all my credit card information.

The next day, I received a legitimate email from PayPal, indicating that my screen name had been changed (googlesites, 2017). I was dumbfounded and called immediately to inquire about the change.  They gave me a purely idiotic Yahoo screen name and informed me that I had been “spoofed.”

I sweated out the night and went to my bank first thing the next morning to cancel my account and open a new one. When I got home, I called my credit card company, and numerous charges had been made THAT DAY on the card.  I explained my situation, and they agreed to cancel that account and issue me a new card.  Thankfully I was not liable for those charges!

It’s too easy for hackers to get private and confidential information on the Internet.  But – the hackers are smarter than we are.
