Phishing on the rise

If you get an e-mail asking you to donate to the victims of Hurricane Wilma, be careful. A scammer may be "phishing" in your e-mail inbox.

"Phishing" scams, in which e-mails and Web sites made to look official are used to trick people out of their credit card numbers or other personal information, are on the rise.

And with people continuing to fall victim and new opportunities to put a different face on the same scam -- the hurricane relief efforts among the latest -- it appears that phishing attacks are here to stay.

The number of attacks was up 28 percent between May 2004 and May 2005, according to a study by research firm Gartner Inc.

An estimated 2.4 million Americans were victims during the 12-month period, resulting in financial losses of about $929 million.
