### REPLY:
Social engineering techniques used in malware attacks can include impersonating a trusted friend or colleague to deceive the victim into opening a malicious email attachment or clicking on a malicious link. Attackers can also use scare tactics, pretending to be law enforcement or a government agency, to trick victims into providing personal information. These techniques can be highly effective in manipulating individuals and gaining unauthorized access to sensitive data.
