web jacking
Cyber Crime
can involve criminal activities that are traditional in nature, such as theft,
fraud, forgery, defamation and mischief. The new age crimes such as
hacking, web defacement, cyber stalking, web jacking.
Attackers
that are using this method are creating a fake website and when the victim
opens the link a page appears with the message that the website has moved and
they need to click another link.
For example:--
The
most common form of it is when an attacker creates a webpage and tricks the
visitor to click somewhere (on a link, Button, Image). Attacker in the code of
his website includes a victim website (like facebook, your webmail, amazon)
that is cleverly hidden from the user and placed so that a user actually clicks
on a victim website.
Imagine
an attacker who builds a web site that has a button on it that says "click
here for a free mobile". However, on top of that web page or down of a
webpage, the attacker has loaded an Iframe with your mail account, and lined up
exactly the "delete all messages" button directly on top of the
"free mobile" button. The victim tries to click on the "free mobile"
button but instead actually clicked on the invisible "delete all
messages" button. In essence, the attacker has "Hijacked" the
user's click, hence the name "Click jacking".
