What are credit card scams and how do they work using digital impersonation?
Credit card scams involve fraudulent activities where scammers use deceitful methods to steal credit card information and commit unauthorized transactions. One common method is digital impersonation, where attackers create fake websites and other digital content that closely mimic legitimate businesses. These sites trick users into entering their credit card details, which are then stolen by the fraudsters. Additionally, attackers may send phishing emails or SMS messages that direct victims to these fake websites. Advanced digital impersonation protection solutions can help identify and neutralize these threats by alerting businesses the moment digital impersonation attacks start, while preventing users who click malicious links from exposing sensitive information.
