Wat is Whaling?

Whaling is de nieuwste trend bij internetfraude. Hoe werkt het? Je krijgt een alarmerende e-mail via Facebook of via je hotmail account van een vriend die zogenaamd in het buitenland vastzit en die al zijn geld, gsm, documenten kwijt is.
Hij vraagt je dringend om financiële hulp.Als je daarop ingaat en geld stuurt, blijkt achteraf dat het e-mailadres of de Facebook-account "gehackt" waren door de georganiseerde misdaad.
De behulpzame vrienden zijn hun geld kwijt en de vriend weet natuurlijk van niets.
