A new clickjacking attack hitting facebook

A new clickjacking attack hitting facebook


Many times i have posted about clickjacking attack used in facebook. And i think it's not over. A new clickjacking scam is again hitting facebook walls. The spam messages posted by victims of this attack read: "Baby Born Amazing Effect - WebCamera" and contains a link that takes users to a page hosted at blogspot.com.  The page displays a video player thumbnail with a play button, however, trying to click it actually forces the user's browser to Like the page.
If you want to know what clickjacking is, read clickjacking introduction post.
Few days ago, face deployed a new mechanism for protecting clickjacking attack, but that system doesn't seem to work better. This new spreading scam is the example of it's faliure. 
If you are a firefox user, you can protect yourself by using NOSCRIPT extension.

4 ways to hack facebook account

I will cover 4 methods over here:

1. Facebook Phishing
2. Keylogging
3. Social engineering
4. Primary email address hack

Facebook phishing:


I have taken this method first because i think this is the most popular method/way of hacking facebook. I studied various facebook surveys taken on web about hacking facebook. The results of these surveys show "Phishing" as the most used method to hack facebook and to note…"Phishing is favorite method of facebook hackers". So, friends.. beware of facebook Phishing. Facebook staff is working hard to avoid these Facebook phishers. Phishing not only allows you to hack Facebook but also almost any email account. You have to only get the trick used to make a phisher, which i think is very easy. I learnt it without any difficulty. But, remember, this is only for educational purpose. I will not extend this topic over here as i have added more on Phishing in my article How to hack facebook password

Keylogging:


This is my second favorite, as only thing you have to do is remotely install a keylogger application (if you don't have any physical access to victim computer). Keylogging becomes more easy if you have physical access to victim computer as only thing you have to do is install a keylogger and direct it to your destination so that it will send all recorded keystrokes to pointed destination. What a keylogger does is it records the keystrokes into a log file and then you can use these logs to get required Facebook password and thus can hack facebook password. I have posted detailed information of top keyloggers in the trade for more information see my password hacking softwares section

3. Social engineering:

This sounds to be pretty not working at beginning. Even I was neglecting this way. But, once, I thought of using it against my friend on Facebook and i got his Facebook password very easily by this method. I think many of you might be knowing how what this social engineering, For newbies, social engineering is method of retrieving password or answer of security question simply be quering with the victim. You have to be very careful while using this as victim must not be aware of your intention. Just ask him cautiously using your logic.


4.Primary email address hack

"Facebook dislike button" is a new kind of spam

All of us use facebook and want a dislike button too for disliking some posts on facebook. Scammers are now using this need as their spam spreading method on facebook. Facebook scammers are tricking users to paste rogue code into their browser's address bars in order to get a Dislike button added to their options. The spam messages posted by victims read "Facebook now has a dislike button! Click Enable Dislike Button' to turn on the new feature!" The scammers replace share link by a message "Enable Dislike Button".
After clicking the link, this message will share this spam message to all friends of user and also rune some rouge code on his system too.

Facebook has not announced any official dislike button and i do not think it will be in near future.
faceook security experts are doing their best for preventing spams on facebook, but spams are increasing day by day. I hope people will understand it's danger and use safe facebook. I advice users not to click on any this kind of spams and always enalbe all security features given by facebook

How to block facebook facial recognition feature

Yesterday facebook has launched it's automatic face recognition feature to all over the world which recognizes your face in photos and suggest your friends to tag you in the photo. 


According to Facebook, this facial recognition feature uses a comparison of photos you're tagged in to suggest that friends tag you in new photos. The site says that this feature is intended to save you time: Instead of tagging the same friends in 25 photos you just uploaded, you can now apply one label to multiple photos in one step.


But this feature is not seems to be liked by users beause it is crossing the limit of online privacy. This feature is enable in default but you can turn it off by these steps
1: Go to Account -- > Privacy settings
2: select "Customize settings." In the second section, "Things others share," click "Edit Settings" next to "Suggest photos of me to friends."
3: change the setting from Enabled to Disabled. 


note: that friends can still manually tag you in photos.
