Overview:
Phishing first gained traction in 1996 with hackers trying to steal America Online passwords from unsuspecting users. Today, it has evolved into a far more menacing criminal enterprise, with bands of fraudsters working together to create schemes that dupe unsuspecting online users into divulging personal details - most often, their online banking credentials.

According to Microsoft, 31.6 million phishing scams were identified in the first half of 2007 - marking an increase of more than 150 percent over the previous six months.
