Quishing [QR Phishing]
Cyber phishing has taken numerous forms and has been there for a long time. Now, in this go-round, the new form of phishing is masquerading through QR codes, known as Quishing.
Since QR codes are nearly everywhere to provide users with easy access to payouts and the information they need, people are prone to scan them without second-guessing their purpose. Seeing this vulnerability, bad actors have chosen to imitate those helpful QR codes, only to lead a person who scans it to a spoofed site, steal their critical information, or install malware on their device.
