Phishing involves tricking a person into entering sensitive personal or financial information into a form on a website or in an email.
Phishing is often regarded as the same with hacking but it has one specific difference. In Phishing, the perpetrator make the victims to give out their information by their own, while in hacking, the perpetrator usually had no idea that their information is being stolen
