The scammers pretend to be part of a legitimate group, company, or governmental organization in the hopes of encouraging targets to trust them.

In one vishing case, scammers targeted PayPal users by including a telephone number in a spam e-mail. In the other case, the criminals configured an automatic telephone dialer to dial phone numbers; when the phone was answered, the dialer played an automated recording saying the telephone customer's credit card had fraudulent activity and asking the customer to call a number with a spoofed caller ID related to the credit card issuer, Secure Computing says. Once users called, they were asked for personal account information.
