Then it will download ngrok in our Kali Linux system, and configure the phishing servers on our localhost and finally give us the Phishing URL.
Now we can send this link to our target with some social engineering techniques. When our target opens this link it will ask to redirect on YouTube.
When our target clicks here to be redirected on YouTube, the device shows following kind of screen:
