The techniques they use to increase the effectiveness of their attacks are in two categories: on the one hand, Social engineering strategies (consist of psychological manipulation and persuasion so that the victim voluntarily provides personal information or performs Some act that puts their own system at risk) and, on the other, technical mechanisms to hinder the detection and analysis of malware.
