Facebook Hacking 101 - Everything That You Need To Know!

If you have seen the movies Hackers or even The Matrix, I'm pretty sure that at some point in your life, you wanted to become one, a hacker so good that you have an underground cult following. But not everyone can become like Neo so you might just limit yourself to Facebook hacking. Whether your reason for hacking Facebook accounts is because you are a perpetually curious person or you just want to know if your husband or wife is lying about who he/she was messaging a couple of minutes earlier, the though of being able to break in to another person's profile just sounds like something amazing, so I want to share with you some not so common tricks of the trade that hackers have used to hack personal profiles on the biggest social media site this century. Use of botnets Botnets are not a popular way of hacking Facebook accounts because of the cost they entail, but if you are looking to hack several or numerous Facebook profiles, then this method would be advisable for you. A bot net is actually a group of computers that have been weakened by malware or some other viral software, where the owners of these computers do not even know their PC's are already compromised. The computers get infected by opening spam emails and the like and once this happens, it acts like a key logger where information from the infected PC is stored and sent to the hacker. Hacking via USB method This is another way of a hacker getting into someone else's Facebook account, but this only works when the hacker has physical access to the victim's device. All he needs to do is to insert a USB device which contains software that extracts passwords that are being used on that particular device. Smart phone hacking A lot of Facebook users (including yours truly) exclusively access their Facebook accounts via their smart phones, thinking that since they are the ones only using their phones, no one would be able to hack into their profiles. This notion could never be more wrong. With the creation of mobile phone spying programs, phone conversations and text messages are not the only ones that can be accessed, it also includes passwords to your email and Facebook accounts. Hacking via unsecured Facebook sessions This is also known as session hijacking. This is very common and very dangerous on LAN and WiFi connections, where Facebook accounts are accessed using http:// or unsecured connections. What happens is, the defrauder takes the person's browser cookie, which is used to authenticate the user on a website, and use it to access the victims account. Some of these methods are costly but some methods, though unfamiliar, can just be further researched online, so if you are seriously considering hacking another person's FB account, make sure to know what you're doing and consider the consequences. After all, you never know, if you get caught, it might be considered a crime, depending on what you've done to that Facebook owner's account.
