"description":"In the context of ATT&CK for Fraud, phishing is described as the sending of fraudulent emails to a large audience in order to obtain sensitive information (PII, credentials, payment information). Phishing is never targeted to a specific individual or organisation. Phishing tries to create a sense of urgency or curiosity in order to capture the victim.",

"description":"ATM Skimming refers to the act of capturing the data stored on a bank cards (tracks) and the Personal Identification Number (PIN) associated to that card. Upon obtaining the data, the criminal proceeds to encode the same information into a new card and use it in combination with the PIN to perform illicit cash withdrawals. ATM Skimming is often achieved with a combination of a skimmer device for the card and a camera to capture the PIN.",
