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.

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.

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!!!

How to Delete Your Facebook Account


If you have tried to delete your Facebook account you may find it almost impossible to do so.

You may find the link to deactivate your account(which is not the same as deleting your account ).When you deactivate your account it will appear to other people that you no longer exist on facebook.But as soon as you log in again you will find all your data intact.It is almost same as not logging in for a long time.If you want to deactivate your account, here is the link
www.facebook.com/deactivate.php



Actually facebook has hidden the delete account link within its help center.It is very difficult to look for.If you want to delete your account, here's the link
You must keep in mind that once you hve deleted your account you can never get the associated data back

Security Holes In Facebook

Do you know anyone can update your facebook status!!!!
Anyone can upload worms on facebook!!!!
Not just you,even your friends are not safe!!!

Yes,it's true.
Following are some security holes in facebook:

1. Profile Access
If you have activated facebook mobile your account is at danger.The thing is, when updating status or any such command via phone,facebook does not ask for your password.So all one have to do is send a message to facebook such that it appears that it is sent from your number.The trick is called Spoof messaging.There are a lot of sites providing this service.One such site is http://www.smsglobal.com/ .They provide 25 free messages.
Using this hole anyone can
  • Update your status
  • Message
  • Get Profile Information of your friends
  • Get cell phone number of your friends
  • Wall post
  • Poke
  • Add your friend
  • Write a note
  • Comment on your status
To do all this one just needs your cellphone number registered on facebook!!!

How to be safe: Do not activate Facebook Mobile.


2. Accessing Deleted Images  
If you think that once you delete an photo it will not be visible to others,then you are wrong.
Once you delete an image only it's link is deleted,not the image...So if you have thelink you can still access a deleted image.So be careful with what you upload!!

3.Facebook is vulnerable to Worms
Facebook can be infected with worms by creating an application.Recent Rotating images worm proves it.It posted status messages automatically, looking something like this:
Hi Friends see Face-book images rotate 360* see here >> http://SHADYCLOUDS.TK/
Really cool Facebook revolving images. MUST SEE http://rotatingimage2.tk/ .
Some are calling it as “social XSS” attack,i.e. any script from friend tempts you to run the same script from address bar.And any such script as if it was hosted on facebook.com and can do everything which the logged-in user can do (unless facebook detects and catches malicious automated action).
How to be safe: Do not allow access to any application unless you completely trust it.

Note: I do not intend to cause damage to social image of facebook in any form.This tutorial is for educational purposes only.I am not responsible for misuse of information posted in any form.
