Which of the below is a hacking technique in which cybercriminals create fictitious web pages or domains to deceive or obtain more traffic ?
Answer: A
The technique is Pharming.
In pharming, attackers redirect users from a genuine website to a fake one, for example by poisoning DNS records or altering a computer's hosts file, so that even typing the correct address leads to the fraudulent site, where credentials are stolen.
Spamming is sending bulk unsolicited messages. 'Mimicking' and 'website-duplication' describe parts of the idea loosely but are not the established name of the technique.
