The claim: Hackers use visually similar characters to deceive people in online phishing schemes
Online attackers bent on stealing personal information are using a visual deception to trick people into visiting malicious websites, a post circulating on social media claims.
The April 20 Facebook post shows two web addresses that, at first glance, appear identical. A closer look, though, shows that one character – in this case, the letter “a” – is slightly different in each one.
“An average internet user can easily fall for this,” the post reads. “Be careful for every mail requiring you to click on a link.”
The post has been shared hundreds of times on Facebook.
