In today’s world, scammers are like super sneaky fishers, but instead of looking for fish, they’re after your personal info like passwords and bank account numbers. This sneaky trick is called “phishing,” and it’s a big problem.

But what if companies could join forces to beat these scammers? That’s exactly what a new anti-fraud plan suggests. It’s like building a secret spy network where companies keep an eye out for these phishing attacks and share what they know with each other. The idea is to make it harder for scammers because the secrets of their sneaky moves won’t be secret for long.

Think of it as having a really cool group chat where everyone shares the latest gossip. But instead of gossip, it’s about all the tricks scammers use. When one company spots a phishing attack, it can quickly tell all the others. Like shouting “Heads up!” before someone tosses a ball your way. This way, everyone is ready and knows how to dodge it.

Why does this matter? Your personal info is like a treasure trove to scammers. When businesses work together, they become better at defending your treasure chest.
