What is Phishing Websites Takedown?
Phishing Website Takedown is the process of removing a malicious website that is designed to trick people
into entering sensitive information, such as their passwords or financial details.
Phishing websites are often designed to look like legitimate websites, such as banks, credit card companies, or online retailers, in order to gain the user's trust. Once a user enters their information on a phishing website, the attackers can steal it and use it for malicious purposes.
