Using the internet to make government more interesting

Common Craft have produced a short video explaining what the practice of phishing is all about.
Great work, guys!

I finally got an email from a credit card company warning about security breach that wasn't phishing. After calling the number on my statement, it turned out there had been an attempted security breach. I have always routinely discarded every email as phish thinking that they were all bogus, but something about this one seemed real. I'm glad I called and now I am going to check on the ones that come from companies that I actually do business with, just to be on the safe side.
