Tathagata Bhattacharya, Sai Teja Veeramalla, Vivek Tanniru · 2023

Internet technology has improved the lives of individuals in a multitude of manners due to its broad use, namely social media sites and banking. Because of the advancement of Internet technologies, security threats to networks and IT infrastructure are always changing. One such serious problem is scamming, in which hackers attempt to obtain users' login information by using phony mail, bogus websites, or both. Businesses and academic organizations place high importance on developing defenses against phishing scams. Therefore, companies must place a high priority on end-user training while taking precautions against phishing dangers. In this research, we clone a popular website to place a phishing attack on a user. This paper has a high impact because we have mirrored highly secure web pages that use form validation for security. Once users come across our duplicate web page, they get fooled by the phishing portal and enter their secret information. Now the attacker uses this information to commit bigger crimes. But this paper is designed so that we can warn the world against this kind of phishing measures and save users from falling into the trap.
