In Relation to the Bible:
“Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘Execute true justice, Show mercy and compassion Everyone to his brother. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, The alien or the poor. Let none of you plan evil in his heart Against his brother.”
Zechariah 7:9-10
This verse from Zechariah explains how we as people, not just Christians, should treat other people around us daily. God is telling us that we should be respectful and be truthful in the things we do in our daily lives. Not only should be true to others, but to ourselves as well. In that sense, phishing is not correct by any means based on this passage.
Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another. “Be angry, and do not sin” : do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil. Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.
Ephesians 4:25-28
This second passage explains to us that we should not lie to one another. Phishing is deliberately misleading someone else for a person’s own personal gain and essentially lying. Even if we are angry at someone else, we should not commit sin to fulfill these thoughts towards others. These verses also explain that we should change and try to be better in what we do each day.

Phishing is absolutely wrong. Nowhere in its concept is it morally or ethically right and there are many laws against it. It is very wrong to go and trick someone into something especially with some who is not very familiar with computers. It is almost as if you are taking candy from a baby, it is not hard to do it, but they can often not do anything about it. Phishing targets people who have very little information or knowledge about computers and sucks them into giving them information, which is then accessed and used. It is human nature to feel bad for someone who is being taken advantage of, and often we do what we can to help them. Just because someone has little knowledge about something doesn’t mean someone should be able to take advantage of them and trick them into do something they would otherwise not do. Phishing is wrong, and anyone who is caught phishing should suffer consequences.
