IT professionals have no simple tool to create phishing websites and raise the awareness of users. We developed a prototype that can dynamically mimic websites by using enriched screenshots, which requires no additional programming experience and is simple to set up. The generated websites are functional and remain up-to-date. We found that 98 mimicked websites are functional with our tool, compared to 43 competitor, and only two participants suspected phishing attempts at the time they were performing tasks with our prototype. This work intends to raise awareness for phishing attempts especially with local websites by providing an easy to use prototype to set up such phishing sites.
