According to the 2019 Verizon Mobile Security Index, 85 percent of phishing attacks seen on mobile devices take place outside of email. In fact, just last month, law enforcement warned of a wave of phishing scams targeting Venmo users with text messages that directed them to a fake website, that then collected personal and banking information.
