Social engineering is the way to get password of someone illegally. Also it is called as social work. This skill allows people to get someone’s important information without damages for computer. There are three major methods to do this.
First, looking and getting password during someone types his/her password. It is basic way to do social engineering. If you stand back of someone, it is easy for you.
Second method is using special software that can remember the input of keyboard. It is necessary to install the software, but there is little possibility to come out.
Third one is pumping the password as fraud. I think it is more complex than other things because it might be systematic crime.
Nowadays, social engineering dose not show only getting password, but also getting personal identification number, so we have to protect our personal information by ourselves carefully.
