Detailed explanation-1: -One way to determine a malicious link is to see if the URL is shortened. Though link shortening services such as TinyURL or bit.ly are legitimate services, attackers leverage them to conceal their link’s true destination. If playback doesn’t begin shortly, try restarting your device.
Detailed explanation-2: -Check the URL There should be a padlock symbol in the address bar and the URL should begin with either ‘https://’ or ‘shttp://’. This indicates that the website is encrypted and secured with an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate.
Detailed explanation-3: -A phishing website looks similar to the original one as cybercriminals copy the theme, HTML, CSS information, graphics, and other intricate details. It may link some of the pages (like contact us or careers) to those of the original website. It often uses the name of the original website.
