Is the term for use of deception to get someones sensitive information?

The term you are looking for is "phishing". Phishing is a type of online scam where criminals use deceptive emails or messages to trick people into giving up their personal information, such as passwords, credit card numbers, or social security numbers. Phishing emails often look like they're from legitimate businesses or organizations, and they may contain links to fake websites that look real. If you receive a phishing email, don't click on any links or open any attachments. Instead, forward the email to your email provider and then delete it.
