MailFrontier Phishing IQ Test
Via
Lifehacker, the
MailFrontier Phishing IQ Test. All folks who are not terribly internet-savvy should take this little quiz, and even if you
are internet-savvy and have been purchasing things online for years and years, take it anyway. I got two questions wrong—not because I misindentified phishing schemes as legitimate, but the other way around. I'm ultra-conservative when it comes to things like this.
The quiz shows ten example emails and you're asked to identify if you think it's phishing or legitimate. When you have completed the quiz you can see your results, and the results include the all-important answer to the question "why?" Why is one example a phishing scheme and the other legitimate, etc. The quiz is very well done.
