Code
phishing page
A phishing page copies a bank to the pixel. It is betrayed by what the eye skips: the address and a certificate issued to someone else.
Action
Read the whole address before you type a password.
Перед вводом пароля прочитайте адрес сайта целиком.
The label in the room
The same hash is printed at the foot of the label. If they match, nobody changed the text.
The expert believed the fake Vermeer; chemistry did not. A phishing page copies a bank to the pixel, but the address gives it away. Read the whole address before typing a password.
Эксперт поверил поддельному Вермееру, химический анализ — нет. Фишинговая страница копирует банк до пикселя, но адрес и сертификат выдают подделку. Перед вводом пароля прочитайте адрес сайта целиком.
