Smishing (SMS phishing)

Smishing is phishing by SMS. The text claims a parcel is waiting, your bank card is blocked or you owe a fine, and gives a short link. The link opens a fake page that asks for your card number or login. Texts feel more urgent and personal than emails, so people react faster. Don't tap the link and don't reply. Report it to your mobile operator or national reporting service. See also phishing. If a similar message reaches your inbox, forward it to check@fishi.email.
