Answer:

<em>Phishing</em>

Explanation:

Phishing is a cyber attack, in which hackers and other criminals try to gather personal data like passwords, photographs, money, access to cloud files, etc. via deceptive emails with links, sent to thousands and thousands of people.

If Jane clicks and provides her passwords, and other personal information into a form, trusting it is a legitimate bank , then She may lose all her money and have many other problems like a cloned credit card, privacy, etc.
