You know those websites. They're everywhere. Phishing and malware sites. Yeah, some of the look legitimate, but mostly, they look fake. Small details, usually barely noticeable, but once seen, can bring down the entire illusion of a real site. For example, take this site:
Looks kind of shifty, but lots of people can argue that the website looks pretty real. At first glance, a little sketchy. Now flip back and forth between each point and the website.
1) Every date on that site is today's date. Don't believe me? Go to the first broken egg that says "News." Today's date. Sketchy, right? Sure thing.
2) Look at the name at the bottom of the page. Dr. Joel David Forsyte. Look him up. One result, as of now. 'Aha! We proved this post wrong!' False. Look at where this article came from. Ovaprima foundation. Sketchy.
3) Go to the bottom cracked egg. Grants. Click on it, and if you were to cross reference the places, they exist. Just not in the places that the website claims that they are.
Be cautious about what website you enter, and what links you click on. Be safe.
