Email spam is not only annoying but also dangerous to users. So, what is email spam? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Email Spamming is a variant of Bombing; it refers to sending Email to hundreds or thousands of users (or to lists that expand to that many users). Email spamming can be made worse if recipients reply to the Email, causing all the original addressees to receive the reply. It may also occur innocently, as a result of sending a message to mailing lists and not realizing that the list explodes to thousands of users, or as a result of a responder message (such as vacation(1)) that is setup incorrectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Email Password Hacking<\/strong>:- <\/p>\n\n\n\n There is no specified attack available just to hack the password of Email accounts. Also, it is not so easy to compromise the Email server like Yahoo, Gmail, etc.
Email Password Hacking can be accomplished via some of the Client Side Attacks. We try to compromise the user and get the password of the Email account before it reaches the desired Email server.
We will cover many attacks by the workshop flows, but at this time we will talk about the very famous ‘Phishing attack’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
