The Internet in India is growing rapidly. It has given rise to new opportunities in the field of entertainment, business, sports, education, and many more. With the advent and increasing use of internet, the businesses have crossed the barriers of local markets and are reaching out to customers located in every part of the world. Computers are widely used in enterprises not only as a tool for processing information, but also for gaining strategic and competitive advantage. Computers can be used both for constructive and destructive reasons. A particularly successful type of cybercrime that allows criminals to trick people and steal crucial data is phishing. It is one of the most common types of crime. Phishing assaults may result in significant losses for sensitive information, identity theft, businesses, and the government is just some of their victims. Phishing websites are widespread entrance points for social engineering attacks carried out online, including countless website frauds.. It is a form of social engineering and a scam where attackers disclose people into revealing sensitive information or installing malware such as viruses, worms, adware, or ransom ware.
