View hidden Facebook Friends

Facebook allows you to control privacy for pretty much everything. One of those settings is to change to visibility of your friends list, but is not of much use. All you need to know is one of their friends

Like I mentioned in my previous post, you can get common information about any two Facebook profiles. You can get information about mutual friends this way too. Since Facebook does not hide information on this page about mutual friends, even though they have selected to hide their friend list, you can almost get a list of their friends.

First go to the URL: https://www.facebook.com/person?and=FriendOfPerson
and check out the mutual friends page. Now you can be sure that all these people are friends with person(whose friend list you wanted to check out). Since you now have a list of friends with person, you can repeat this process with them to pretty much get all their friends.

View friendship between two people

Sometimes you remember some conversations happening on facebook but its really difficult to go back on your feed to search for it. Here is a simple way to search it by simply checking out the conversations between people, all you need is their link to facebook profiles.

Say link to profile of person 1 is : https://www.facebook.com/person1
Similarly link to profile of person 2 is : https://www.facebook.com/person2
Then all you need to do is visit url : https://www.facebook.com/person1?and=person2

If they do not have a username :
Say link to profile of person 1 is : https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=111111
Similarly link to profile of person 2 is : https://www.facebook.com/person2
Then all you need to do is visit url : https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=111111&and=person2

On this page you can get their common likes, photos in which both are tagged, posts on each other's timeline, coming up events in which both are going and the date of their friendship.

The two people do not need to be friends or even in the friends network, but you can get a summary of their common interests.

Fake clicks in Google Adsense

Google Adsense is now a very popular service and it is getting more and more difficult each day to get an approved adsense account. Being such popular it still lacks the inablity to detect the reals IP behind a VPN service. Since Adsense does not check the original source of clicks coming from IP provided by a VPN service, Adsense can be tricked into rewarding money to website owners, literally giving money away. To do this all a website owner has to do is following:

• Get an approved adsense account
• Add advertisements on his/her website
• Now go to any VPN service (providing a PPTP) 
• Use it to visit his own site
• Click on advertisement displaying on his own site.

To take advantage of this method, website owner can different VPN services over some time so as to not arouse any suspicion.

Some of the free services that can be used are:

Comondo VPN

http://www.bestukvpn.com/

 and many others.

Note:  This method may work on almost all adsense like services.

Access blocked sites by ISP's

Some time back some Indian service providers such as Airtel blocked some sites like thepiratebay.se claiming that their action was based on court orders.

Message shown when tried accessing thepiratebay.se

There is a workaround existing to access these 'blocked' sites. All you have to do is to enter the address as https://thepiratebay.se rather than http://the piratebay.se , i.e. access the SSL version of the site.

Thepiratebay accessible after using https://thepiratebay.se

This is applicable for other sites as well.

Post Blank Status on Facebook

Today I found this amazing trick by which you can update your status to blank as shown in the picture.

Status Update without any content

 Recently, facebook added a new feature by which you can tag people, posts, pages and groups using their unique id or username. For example, if the page has a username funstartshereblog you can tag the page simply by adding @[funstartshereblog:0] as a part of your status.

Now Facebook has not registered anyone with id = 0, so if you post @[0:0], facebook will consider that your post has content but when posted there will be no content in your post and your status will be blank. Please note that this trick does not work while commenting.

Blogger Local Domain Redirection

As you might have noticed, blogger is now redirecting blogs to country specific blogs rather than ".com" domain, i.e. if you are visiting this blog from India you will see the URL as
"http://roadtoheavenisnothere.blogspot.in".  The direct implicaiton is that this will help blogger to control the presentation of the content based on the geographical location of the user and hence be able to apply country specific restrictions on the content as demanded by the various countries.
Blogger has also enabled a workaround this restriction. Just add"\ncr" just after the domain name. NCR stand for No Country Restriction. So instead of visiting the blog at "abc.blogspot.com", use the url "abc.blogspot.com/ncr" and be free form the country restrictions.

Download Facebook Messenger

HACK Gmail : Social Engineering Method

Hi

Hacking gmail is not an easy task, but social engineering method can make it quite easy. The outline of method is this: we will impersonate as our victim and claim to gmail that my account is hacked,tricking the system to give away the password resetting option and hence allowing us to enter the account of the victim.
For this, we need some information about the victim:

• creation month and year of account
• Five commonly contacted people.
• Labels used(usually people do not change them so you can try the standard ones if you have no idea about them).
• Other google products used and their approximate months of start.
• any older password (may be able to break in without it, but the more the better)

Let's start:

Track Sent Emails

Emailing has become very common.While sending important mails we need to be notified whether the person on the receiving end has read the email.Luckily, the tools have been developed.

The Classic
Some email programs(e.g. squirrelmail) use the classical method which requests the user using an alert to send receipt of email.But the receiver always has the upper end. He/She may disable sending the receipt rendering the feature useless.

Google + Invitations

Google + is a social networking site released by google earlier this year to capture the rapidly increasing social networking market.
Currently, you are not able to join Google + even if you have an invitation.But there is a loohole through which you can invite your friends to join Google +.Here is how:

• Ask your friend to add you in a circle.
• An option will appear to add you by email.
• Now enter the name of your friend and click add
• Now a green bar will appear at the bottom of your page with an option saying "Invite [name] to Google +"
  
• On clicking it a popup will appear asking you to invite your friend.

You can comment here if you need to be added to Google + or directly go to this page.

Reverse Image Search by Google

You all must have have heard about tineye.It basically allows you to upload an image and search images of which the image is a part of.The problem with tineye was its small database.
Now google has launched such a service too.It can be accessed at google images. You can either upload image form your computer or search by specifying the image url.

Go to images.google.com

 

and click on the camera icon .

Disposable Email addresses

Disposable email addresses are email address which expire whenever you want.This basically is done to keep the spam away.As you might know that many service providers are providing email alias but most of them can be easily be filtered and hence your email id may be accessible.On the other,disposable email addresses provide you with an entirely different email address and hence saving you from spam.

Some of the service providers are:

• 33mail.com: Its a free service and provides unlimited disposable addresses,however in the free account you get limited but generous bandwidth.Once you pick up a username,for example disposable,you can create any disposable email address like ex@disposable.33mail.com whenever you want without even informing it to 33mail.These email address will be forwarded to your actual email address that you used for registering.You can cut those email address whenever you want by unsubscribing them through the link provided in  each of the forwarded emails.I personally prefer this service.It's fast and free.
  

Be Safe From short url's

You must have come across urls like http://goo.gl/XoG1z .They surely make it easier to share and remember long urls but are prone to be used by hackers.Since you so not know what site you are being redirected to beforehand this exploit can easily be used for phishing and other illegitimate uses.
In order to know beforehand the url you are opening it's better to check out to what url you are being redirected.
For url shortened by google(like the one shown before) you  can add a '+' symbol to get the info.For example to get info about http://goo.gl/XoG1z just go to http://goo.gl/XoG1z+
For all other url short urls you can visit longurl.org they decode for a number of services.You can also get their firefox addon(it works for firefox4 and firefox 5.it also works for ff6 but somehow it shows incompatible) and Chrome extension.

Lock Folders in windows xp and windows 7

Hi all, to lock folders is sometimes a necessity.The process is quite simple


LOCKING
first of all put all the files you want to lock in a folder,let's say "lock".Now rename the folder to
"lock.{2559a1f2-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0}" for windows7
"lock.{FEF10DED-355E-4e06-9381-9B24D7F7CC88}"for windows xp
but the folder will still appear to be named as "lock" with added security such as nothing will happen when you try to open it.

Hack Facebook Groups

First things first---not all groups can be hacked.Only groups having an email id can be hacked,typically groups having email id will show their email id on their page (as shown in highlighted part of  image) .

You must also know art of fake mailing(Learn here!).
The last thing you need to know is the email address of victim registered with facebook.

Facebook groups have a feature that by enabling email address for group,it's users can post in group using an email.The problem with this feature is that it does nothing to verify identity of user except his/her email address which can easily be faked.
To post in group, simply mail the group such that the mail received by group id  looks like:
From:   victim@example.com
To:        hacked@groups.facebook.com
Sub:      wall
Body:    Here insert the text you want to post from your victim's email address


The post will appear almost instantly.


Enjoy!!!

Backtracking Emails

Most of us believe that the email message sent to them is determined by "FROM" header,but it cannot be denied that most of the times it's forged(Learn How).

The question then arises how to determine where the email came from? You have to understand how email messages are put together in order to backtrack an email message. SMTP is a text based protocol for transferring messages across the internet. A series of headers are placed in front of the data portion of the message. By examining the headers you can usually backtrack a message to the source network, sometimes the source host.

If you are using Outlook or Outlook Express you can view the headers by right clicking on the message and selecting properties or options.If you are using Gmail you need to click on "show original"(click on down arrow next to reply while reading a mail).For Yahoo:In the full message view,"View Full Header" option is placed under the "Actions" tab.

Now Let's Start actual work.Let's Take an example
