摘要
The growth in technology usage came along with many risks and increase in cybercrimes incidents. Phishing attacks are a form of cybercrimes by which attackers trick victims in order to obtain personal and sensitive information. Phishers motivations include gaining unauthorized information and access, cause financial loss and many more negative impacts. While cybercriminals keep developing their techniques, investigating different attack styles and methodologies are important steps toward developing effective protection mechanisms. This paper contributes to this direction by presenting and analyzing various phishing attack styles including Nigerian, Ghanaian, Chinese and Russian cybercrime styles. Due to richness of learning resources Russians and Chinese were found to be using more advanced techniques than Ghanaians and Nigerians who has limited resources.
