Google, PayPal, Facebook and Microsoft team up to eliminate phishing

Email phishing is a pretty common scam that catches quite a lot of folks who don't know better when it comes to telling if an email is fake or not. In case you're wondering what email phishing is, it basically is a scam where people send out emails posing as official companies/sites requesting for your personal information and account details. People who fall into the trap end up giving away their details to scammers with malicious intent. Well, it looks like a bunch of web giants are trying to make sure that it's not a problem anymore.
