Pharming is a type of online security scam in which a malicious code is installed on a person’s computer and web browser that redirects the unsuspecting user away from a legitimate commercial website to another, fraudulent site to allow for the theft of personal information. The term pharming was first used by Scott Chasin, who warned that the more deleterious form of hacking had become increasingly threatening in the early 2000s; he chose the term pharming because it is a portmanteau of the words "phishing" and "farming" and has often been described as "phishing without a lure."
