Types of Cyber Creatures
1. Social Engineering – Vampire Clans
a. Phishing Vampire
The stalker will put out bait to try to suck information out of you such as usernames, passwords, credit card details and money. Phishing Vampires typically disguise themselves as someone trustworthy via email. Once they latch on, they will suck you dry.
b. Spear Phishing Dracula
Dracula is like the Phishing Vampire; however, he likes to take his time and target high-value people who have authority in a business such as the CEO or CFO. Via email, he will gain your trust and he will suck you dry through your fingers by convincing you to authorize transfers of large sums of money. Sounds like an easy trap, but modern-day Dracula can be very convincing and deceiving.
