The behavior of cyber criminals is increasingly sophisticated when taking advantage of information leaks from the dark web to create fake and fraudulent websites. Among them, common scam situations that young users may encounter are: Phishing emails; links with strange URLs, Ransomware (malware that encrypts data or locks the system, forcing victims to pay ransom to restore)...
These are common "tricks" to steal personal information, bank account information and even blackmail. In 2023, the Information Security Department introduced 24 forms of cyber fraud.
These practical contents were shared by cybersecurity expert Hieu PC in the online course "Application of AI in learning" organized by FPT University for free exclusively for high school students nationwide.
