"Phishing - a play on the word "fishing" - is an attempt to steal your password and private account info. Phishers can set up fake web sites that look like those of trusted companies like Yahoo to trick you into disclosing your user name and password."
Thanks to Yahoo! Mail, I discovered early what phishing does. The website allows an option to create a seal (either an image or text) that you should see to make sure you are on the legit Yahoo! site. And yes, it is still available until now.

Way back on 2005, Chris Putnam and two of his friends created a worm code that changed Facebook profiles look to MySpace profiles look and along the way deleted contact information of users. Since they've created a worm, it copies itself from profile to profile.
When Facebook received complaints and discovered Putnam was the creator, co-founder Dustin Moskovitz offered him a job and hired him.
