How Does it Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To understand the gravity of the situation, let us learn how a phishing website operates. Phishing is a type of online fraud where a fake website is designed to mimic the original site. This allows them to trick users into entering their details and stealing their money or banking as well as personal details.<\/p>\n<p>These scams are usually spread through e-mails, messages, and social media posts. A good example would be an e-mail from your bank asking you to update your account. It will contain a link that will redirect you to a page that looks identical to your bank website. This will be enough to trick you into entering your banking details.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Detect_Phishing_Websites_on_Android_or_iPhone\"><\/span>Detect Phishing Websites on Android or iPhone<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As discussed above, phishing or malicious sites can be difficult to track down. There is not even a particular app or service that can help you with this. Yet, we have come up with a list of methods that will help you detect such websites or businesses. These methods should at least help warn you if you click on an unprotected link or stumble upon a suspicious webpage on your smartphone. Let us have a look at them.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_1-_Enhanced_Safe_Browsing_on_Chrome\"><\/span>Method 1- Enhanced Safe Browsing on Chrome<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Safe browsing mode is a security feature that helps protect users from phishing and malware websites. When enabled, the browser will display a warning message if you attempt to visit a site that is known to be malicious or suspicious. To enable Safe browsing mode in the Google Chrome app for Android, follow these steps:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Open the <strong>Chrome<\/strong> app on your Android device.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Tap on the <strong>three dots<\/strong> in the top right corner to access the menu.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Go to
