Social engineering is a cyber attack method where hackers manipulate people instead of hacking systems, using fear, urgency, and fake trust to trick victims into revealing passwords, OTPs, or personal information; for example, a message claiming an account will be deleted in one hour can cause panic and lead to account compromise when victims click malicious links.

Hackers don't always break into computers. Sometimes they break into your mind.
This is called social engineering.
Instead of hacking systems, hackers manipulate people to steal information.
For example, you get a message saying, "Your Instagram account will be deleted in 1 hour. Log in now."
You panic, click the link, and boom, your account gets hacked.
That's exactly how social engineering works.
Hackers use fear, urgency, fake trust to trick victims into giving passwords, OTPs, or personal data.
So, remember this.
Before clicking any link, think twice.
