Facebook Hacking is very common in these days and maybe this is due to backholes in Facebook. Facebook is working to fix it but hackers are discovering new ways to hack Facebook everyday. In this article I'll tell you few tips to be secure from attacks by hackers. Remember I'm not going to hack anybody's account. This is just for awareness purpose. Hope this will allow you to understand better that how hackers hack your account.

1. Cookies Stealing

       Sometimes we allow our personal computer to save our Facebook password and E-mail to get rid of typing password again and again. Our browser save this password and E-mail into cookies in the form of file. This file is saved in somewhere in PC we don't know about. But somehow hackers are able to trick the browser to get these cookies. Which they can use to access your Facebook account.

This trick will work on all the save Passwords and Emails so be safe.

2. Phishing

     In my previous post I explained about phishing and how to perform this action using Kali Linux. This is another security threat which is increasing day by day. I'll teach you phishing using thir party websites. But now come to the point, you may know that it is a fake website which looks exactly like Facebook. Sometimes you may receive a message saying

  "You got a new friend request click the link below to see it."

But when you click that link you see a page(actually fake page) which ask you to enter your Facebook Password and E-mail. You enter your details and hit enter again a Facebook page pop up this time real Facebook page pops up you again enter your details and press enter. Now you are logged in Facebook you see there is no new request you Lock your mobile and put it into your pocket but secretly the hacker becomes successful to steal your data.

This could be happen to almost any social account like Hotmail, Twitter etc. 

 3. Recovery

       You may get shock to hear that Facebook recovery option could be use to compromise your Facebook account. Indeed this option was added to Facebook for a good cause but many people are using it to hack your account. 

Many people might registered their Facebook accounts with their phone numbers. Now sometimes our friend ask us to give him our phone. We think it's not a big issue only me know the Facebook password of my account. But your friend click on "forgot password" option. Then Facebook send a recovery code to phone number which your friend can use to change password. He changed password and let the Facebook logged in to other devices. In this way you can not get that your Facebook Password has been changed for months.
