What is a common feature of vishing attacks?

A common feature of vishing attacks is the use of fraudulent caller ID. Vishing, or voice phishing, involves attackers using phone calls to trick individuals into revealing sensitive information, such as personal details or financial information. By manipulating caller ID information, attackers can make it appear as though they are calling from a legitimate organization or trusted source, increasing the likelihood that victims will engage with them and disclose private information.

This tactic effectively exploits psychological factors, as individuals are generally more likely to respond to unfamiliar calls that resemble those from authoritative sources. The other options, such as intercepting emails, embedding malware, and creating fake websites, are more closely related to different types of cyber threats. These methods are not typical of vishing, which focuses primarily on voice communication to deceive victims.
