B Correct answer
Explanation

Phishing is a social engineering technique where attackers send fraudulent messages, often mimicking reputable companies, to trick individuals into revealing sensitive personal information. The correct spelling of this term is 'Phishing'. 'Phising' and 'Fishing' are incorrect spellings, and a virus is a self-replicating program rather than a social engineering method.
