ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Pishing

Phishing is when bad people try to trick you into giving them your important information like your passwords, bank account numbers or even your social security number. They usually do this by pretending to be someone you trust, like your bank or your favorite website. They might send you an email or a message that looks just like the real thing, but actually it's not. So it's really important to always double check before you enter any of your important information online.
