New scam term to remember: Vishing
Posted on Jul 11, 2006 by Tom Fragala
Jim Malmberg at GuardMyCreditFile has an article on Vishing, saying “Vishing is similar to phishing accept that instead of using e-mail to lure their victims, Vishers actually use VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) to make cheap long distance phone calls and commit fraud.” This term is so new (Jim did you coin it yourself?) that even Wikipedia doesn’t have an entry.
