What is RSS?
RSS or Real Simple Syndication is a format used for syndicating news and content of news-like sites like yahoo, wired.com, blogs, etc. RSS has evolved and is currently used for any kind of information that can be broken down with a common data pattern. Using RSS, we can now monitor news, blogs, job listings, personals, and classifieds. Many sites and blogs offer feeds, which you can identify by a small button that says either RSS or XML.

Typically, phishing attacks will direct the recipient to a web page which will look exactly like the target organization’s webpage and have the same colors and logos. I once got an email which took me to a page that looked like an eBay webpage and asked me for my username and password. I figured it was a fake by looking at the web address on the browser address bar.
