tina: this week's new word is 'phishing'. karen: fishing? isn’t that when you catch a fish from the sea or river? i don’t think that’s a new word, tina.
tina: i see what you mean. but this word is not connected with fish from the sea. that’s why we spell it differently. p.h.i.s.h.i.n.g.
karen: 啊哈,发音相同,但是拼写不一样。so what does phishing mean, tina?
tina: it’s a little bit complicated so please listen carefully. phishing describes a new kind of internet crime.
karen: a crime!
tina: yes, a crime using the internet. the criminals send you an email which appears to be from your bank. the email tells you to go to a website that looks almost identical to the bank’s real website. the criminals will have all your financial details and they can start spending your money.
