How to Hack a Facebook Account

Many people would like to hack a facebook account in order to find out some information. Since our blog is focuses on catching cheating spouses this is a hot topic these days. I’ve written many hacking guides for myspace, hotmail, etc. and they all are pretty similar. There are lots of scam sites and such telling you they can hack for money, or having you download “hacking tools” that are actually designed to steal your own passwords.. and these should be highly avoided.

This article will tell you exactly the real ways you can hack a facebook password and view it’s activity. There are 3 methods, and 1 of them is free:

Spy Software
(paid software, but best chance at spying on facebook)

Spy software is basically a tool that can be used to spy on everything a person does on their computer. From what sites they visit to capturing the password they use for facebook (and other sites), spy software is by far the #1 and most effective way to hack someones facebook password.

There are many companies that sell spy software, but the the problem with most of them is the law and “ethics” that force them into including warnings in the spy software that notify the user they are being monitored. This is great for employers or parents, but for those that want to be sneaky and hack the facebook password you need a remote monitoring solution. If you are looking for a product that will NOT warn the person they are being spyed on, check out SniperSpy (WE NO LONGER RECOMMEND SniperSpy, AS THEY NOTIFY USER OF BEING SPYED). Getting it installed on the person’s computer is pretty easy, and to view what information the software has captured you need only log into their website. A HUGE advantage to spy software vs just hacking the facebook password is that spy software will take screenshots and capture data, so that if the person you want to hack is deleting their facebook messages.. you will be able to view them in sniperspy’s screenshot logs. As I mentioned in my previous MySpace hacking article (which has thousands of positive comments from when myspace was actually popular).. I have used SniperSpy to catch my girlfriend and it saved me from almost/possibly getting an STD.. not joking. I highly recommend using SniperSpy to catch a cheater, and have done a full review on it here.

If you live with the person you want to hack, you probably don’t need SniperSpy if you can access the computer physically and regularly. In this case you might check out KeyProwler which supports a lot of the same features, but without the need to pay a subscription like SniperSpy. I tried out the 7 day trial and it worked great at recording a facebook password.

Phishing
(free, but more difficult and technical)

If you’ve been on facebook long enough, you’ve seen your friends making weird status updates or wall posts that you know they wouldn’t make such as “hey i just won $100 check out this site www.somescam.com”. It happens to your friends because hacking accounts can make spammers a lot of money, and it happened because of Phishing. Phishing is basically the process of tricking someone into entering their private information into a FAKE facebook login page, and this is how it usually works: the victim is sent an email that appears to be from facebook (yes, this can be easily done) and the message contains a call to action such as “Your account needs to be activated or it will be suspended!!!” along with a link to activate your account which actually goes to a fake login page (setup by the hacker) that looks identical to facebook. Due to many peoples ignorance to how authentic looking and convincing these “phishing” messages can be, people often click the links and enter their login details without thinking, and now a spammer/hacker has them for his purposes which is usually hacking more accounts – after all, you trust your friends, don’t you? 😉

If you would like to learn how to do this yourself, I am all about education and have created very detailed phishing instructions along with a fake login page creator tool. It comes with a free way to send an anonymous email that looks like it came from facebook, where to sign up for free hosting for your fake login page, and everything else needed to phish someone’s password. See below!

As of Nov. 2010 we have received legal threats to remove this information from our site.

Mobile phone spying (iPhone, Android, Blackberry)

Mobile spy software! It’s been around for years, but only on some phones that most people didn’t have. Then the iPhone was born and changed everything causing the smartphone to become ‘cool’, and then a wave of android phones followed such as the Droid, Evo, Incredible, etc (theres like 20 phones now). Even I myself have a smartphone capable of running spy software now (HTC Evo from sprint), but just last year I had a motorola razr which could not run such sophisticated software. While monitoring a phone of course has the advantage of spying on text messages and phone calls, were here to talk about facebook and how to hack facebook passwords. Getting the spy software installed on a phone without physically handling it is almost impossible, so if you think you can hack a phone over the internet – not yet, because any program that is installed on the phone must be done manually. There are only two products that work on both iPhone and android phones – they are Mobile Spy  (WE NO LONGER RECOMMEND MOBILESPY, AS THEY NOTIFY USER OF BEING SPYED) and MobiStealth and you can read my detailed review of them both in my other article Top 3 Apps for Spying on Text Messages and Call History.

Conclusion

The huge advantage of computer spy software over other methods is that instead of only getting the facebook password, you can get passwords to all different kinds of sites, chat logs, and most importantly SCREENSHOTS. For example, say they are deleting their inbox messages from facebook (which happens alot with paranoid spouses) – normally you would have no idea or anyway to recover them with just their password, but sniperspy will have recorded what the screen looked like when they were browsing their inbox so that you can look at the picture and read the message.

Phishing, while the most popular method  to hack someones facebook, is highly technical and relies heavily on tricking the person. It is mainly used on a mass scale and not for targeting specific people because of it’s low success rate – the success rate depends highly of course on the intelligence of the person and how believable your “phish” is.

Finally, mobile spying is about as effective as computer spying (once installed), but the fact is that not everyone has a cell phone that will run spy software. Thats right, not everyone has a cool iPhone, Droid, or Evo yet. But because these phones are so cool, they make for a great gift that you can preinstall the spy app on and then have full access to whoever you give it to.
