Can someone remind the correct term for when a scammer/hacker sends you url that looks legit but when you click it directs you another site?
I'm not referring to typo squatting where the link is slightly misspelled but resembles the original URL. The visible URL link is the actual URL however it's just a cover and sends you to a different site entirety... Maybe I'm making this up but I'm pretty sure it's a thing and I know that's probably not the best way to describe it.
Yeah, it's obviously a method used in phishing attacks but that's not the specific term I'm looking for. There's a number of of methods used in phishing attacks typosquatting being one as I mentioned in my question but that's not the specific term I'm looking for.
Thanks
