Anti-Phishing Working Group says 56,859 phishing sites were detected in February. 38 percent of the fake websites were related to financial services, report says. U.S. hosted the most fake sites, followed by retail and other service sites. Nearly half of the phishing websites used some form of a brand in their URL, which often tricks people into divulging information. Better security technologies are helping to take down fake sites faster than ever due to new technology, APWG says.”]
