Dans le monde numérique d'aujourd’hui, la prolifération de contenus trompeurs pose un véritable défi pour les consommateurs. Ces contenus, capables d'induire en erreur et de créer de la confusion, se manifestent sous différentes formes, allant des informations fausses aux pratiques d'hameçonnage découlant de l'ingénierie sociale. Ils visent à manipuler les utilisateurs, souvent en les incitant à partager des données personnelles sensibles ou à souscrire à des offres frauduleuses.
