What is cyber fraud using fake calls called?

 Cyber fraud using fake calls is often called vishing, a term that combines "voice" and "phishing." Vishing is a form of social engineering where attackers use phone calls to impersonate legitimate organizations, such as banks, government agencies, or tech support, to deceive people into sharing sensitive information (like banking details, credit card numbers, or personal identification data) or transferring money.

Typically, vishing scams involve tactics to create urgency or fear, making people more likely to fall for the scam.
