This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief. The journal was alerted to issues within this article, including significant overlap in content, methodology, and visual materials with another previously published article: "Social Engineering Attack Classifications on Social Media Using Deep Learning" (DOI: 10.32604/cmc.2023.032373) published in Computers, Materials & Continua in 2023. Upon thorough investigation, it was found that the article substantially reproduces ideas, methodologies, and figures from the original work without proper attribution, violating the ethical standards of the journal and academic publishing. The authors were contacted and asked to provide an explanation for these concerns. The corresponding author acknowledged the oversight and accepted responsibility for the duplication. Consequently, the authors formally requested the withdrawal of the paper. As per journal policy, the Editor-in-Chief has decided to retract the article due to a breach of publication ethics. The journal sincerely regrets that these issues were not detected during the manuscript screening and review process and apologizes to the authors of the original article, as well as to the readers of the journal.
