  • Phishing – spray and pray – grab an email list and let it rip – big net phishing
  • Spear phishing – Aimed directly at you. Everything makes it look like it should be in your email meant for you from someone you know
  • Whaling – Pointed directly at upper management of a company with an urgent business matter
  • Soft targeting – send to people with a certain job that they would expect, like HR gets a resume but financial team gets a spreadsheet
  • Telephone phishing – Just call you up and act like they should be asking you for login information
