Diversion
In this tactic, the social hackers will try to intercept data or even money by routing it along routes that they control. These requests could come in the form of a call from the “suppliers,” which will inform you of a change in their bank or email accounts. But it could also be as simple as adding somebody in cc of an email chain. You could for example get an email from a private account with the name of your business partner. Your “business partner” claims they currently can’t access their work email, asking you to resend the budget forecasts or blueprints.
