The goal of an email impersonation attack, a sort of phishing assault, is to fool the receiver into clicking a malicious link or attachment by pretending to be a legitimate sender. Obtaining the account and password to access the restricted data is the goal. For instance, the username for "bill.gates@microsoft.com" is "bill. gates". Although username impersonation is the least complex type of email impersonation, it nevertheless has the potential to fool an unwary victim.
