Phishing, smishing and vishing attacks: What’s the difference?
Phishing, smishing and vishing attacks. You’ve probably heard of them, but what are they? What are the differences between them? And what can you do to avoid being a victim of them?
To help us understand, John Landecker is joined by Herb Weisbaum, The ConsumerMan, an Emmy-award-winning broadcaster and one of America’s top consumer experts. He’s been protecting us for over 40 years, having covered the consumer beat for CBS News, NBC News, and The TODAY Show, among others.
He is currently a contributing editor at Checkbook.org, a nonprofit organization that helps consumers get good service at low prices. He also hosts their Consumerpedia podcast. Together, they discuss the latest scams that you should be aware of and getting rid of pests. Check out the link checkbook.org/wgnradio/pests for more!
