This project aims at detecting phishing sites made by the phishers who steal personal user data to conduct illicit
activities. We will extract features from the URL which are submitted by the user. These features will then be given to decision
tree algorithm to classify the site as phishing or legitimate. Also, ranking of the sites will be considered while classifying the site
as phishing or legitimate. In this project URL- based heuristic approach will be used along with the ranking of sites .
