from Technically U · host Technically U
Clickjacking is a malicious cyberattack where hidden elements on a webpage trick users into unwanted actions. Attackers overlay invisible frames over legitimate-looking websites, causing unsuspecting clicks to trigger actions like unauthorized money transfers or malware downloads. Several types exist, including likejacking, cursorjacking, cookiejacking, and filejacking, each targeting different user data or actions. Protection involves using updated browsers with security features, installing browser add-ons, and enabling specific security headers for website administrators. Ultimately, clickjacking poses a serious threat to online security and financial well-being.Report Fraud and Useful Resources:Federal Trade Commission (FTC) www.IdentityTheft.gov or 877-438-4338 https://www.bbb.org/scamtrackerhttps://www.bbb.org/article/news-releases/16951-bbb-tip-identity-thefthttps://www.experian.com/fraud/center.htmlFTC Free Annual Credit Report: https://www.annualcreditreport.com/gettingReports.actionThree Credit Agencies: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion
