Sending an easily identified phishing email to a user who then forwards it to their IT department, who in turn clicks the link to identify where it leads and there by exposes themselves (a user with higher privileges) to the phishing threat. This might also be employed to reach higher levels of management when a direct attack isn&#039;t feasible. &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;INTERACTIONS&#039;&#039;&#039; [VETs]: &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> == &#039;&#039;&#039;Examples:&#039;&#039;&#039; ==<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Use Case Example(s):&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Example(s) From The Wild:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> == &#039;&#039;&#039;Comments:&#039;&#039;&#039; ==<br /> <br /> == &#039;&#039;&#039;References:&#039;&#039;&#039; ==</div> Info
