Do you mean phishing.. for those who dont know..phising is process of creating a website which is very similar to some popular website on the internet.For example a site simiar to that of a bank. Then a fake mail is sent to some account holder of bank to update his account profile or to verify his balance or some other excuse.The address of website mentioend in this mail is the fake one which is quite familiar with the original website;s name.just an extra alphabet is added which wouldnt cause any doubt. When the user enters this page, he is asked for account number and password which he types out and presses submit . Now instead of entering his account the user gets a message like "login failed" or "invalid account".Now the creaters of the fake website have the account number and password which they use in the actual website and do some false operations and by the time the account holder visits the actual website the money would alredy be gone So when ever you get an external link verify the source and enter your username and pwd if its trustable And this to person who asked for a tool.. man try being ethical..dont do such things even for fun. You would land yourself in some serious problems. The IT laws are getting stricter.Remember one thing..if you can fool somebody then you might also end being fooled someday
