job phishing

An internet phishing scam specifically targeted at job seekers. Fake jobs are posted on job boards where job seekers are only too interested to divulge personal information. This personal information is used for telemarketing, collecting personal passwords and in the most advanced schemes, identity theft.

The job posting on the internet seemed too good to be true and on further investigation, it turned out they were job phishing and I almost fell for it.

phishing expedition

A large scale spam operation aimed at getting unsuspecting people's passwords to their online banking sites, eBay and PayPal accounts and other points of interest on the web. Usually involves an alarming email message informing the recipient that his account's been compromised or a security upgrade in in progress that contains a link to a fake web site that's been made to look like the real thing. The email insists that in order to keep your account active, you MUST click the link and log in - thus giving the people running the phishing expedition access to your account.

That phishing expedition seems to have worked, we got access to over 500 new accounts.
