Phishing is a computer scam carried out by sending an email with the counterfeit logo of a credit institution or an e-commerce company, in which the recipient is invited to provide confidential data (credit card number, password to access the home banking, etc.), justifying this request with technical reasons.

European Union agency for cybersecurity deals with Phishing and helps European citizens to recognize scams.

Everyone is susceptible to phishing, which can take many different forms of targeting Internet users and extracting valuable information from them. Although we know a lot  about phishing, we know little about its relationship to demographic variables (such as age and gender). Some studies, however, that some age groups are more susceptible than others and how to remedy the situation.
Young adults are one of the demographic groups with the highest presence on social networks and are more likely to be exposed and become easy targets for online phishers.

A 2010 study also found that "younger people in the 18 – 25 age group are more frequently falling for phishing” than other sections of the population.
