Before you log in, be aware of possible fraud. Your username and password might already have been taken by the keylogger before you reach the login page.
You can search Google for "fake login page" to be immediately presented with a multitude of guides, such as "Fake any site in seconds." These guides are not intended to address privacy and ethics, but they do demonstrate the widespread use of phishing sites, also known by spoofed websites as a vector of cyberattacks. Once the target has entered his or her credentials, the attackers now have all the information necessary to log into a real account. From there, they can engage in illegal activities such as identity theft, data extraction, wire transfer fraud, and credit card fraud.
