The reason for their success is that they appear reliable and trustworthy to users.<\/p>\n<p>There are different versions of this scam, but the <i>modus operandi <\/i>usually follows the same patterns.

It is a forgery and the best way to find out is to look at the real address of the link. To do this we must put the cursor over the link and see the actual address to which the link points.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12537 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humanlevel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/url-falsa.gif\" alt=\"Recognizing fake phishing links\" width=\"350\" height=\"67\"><\/p>\n<p>In this example it is clear that the real address of the link does not correspond to the URL displayed.<\/p>\n<p>We can also check the veracity of the website by looking at <strong>the URL that appears in the address bar of our browser<\/strong>. Sometimes there are fake pages whose domain is very similar to the real one and it is difficult for the user to be aware of the danger of entering confidential data on that site. This practice is known as  <i><strong>cybersquatting<\/strong>.<\/i>  A well-known example was  <a title=\"Go to Caja Madrid phishing example\" href=\"https:\/\/seguridad.internautas.org\/html\/447.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the one suffered by the bank Caja Madrid<\/a>The way to access was http:\/\/www.cajamadrid.es and to navigate safely https:\/\/oi.cajamadrid.es.
