Persons seeking to gain access to protected computer networks commonly use "social engineering". Portraying themselves as naïve users and requesting help from other users or administrators of the network, they try to trick their targets into divulging passwords or exposing protected information. A lot of so-called identity theft cases are nothing more than social engineering.
