Don't Phish or Keylog on Facebook but why??

Why not Phish on Facebook?

Well, as stated on my old post... A problem appears showing that you are logging in from a different location, so even if you have a password and the e-mail. You will still have the problem and you won't be able to log in. This problem happens when you attempt to change their passwords manually by having the URL sent to their e-mails.


Once again, you would need to spoof their IPs to bypass that.

Why not Keylog?

Well, again... Keylogs only record keystrokes executed on the person's keyboards. You will have access to text and nothing else. By text, I am referring to whatever you seek such as e-mail and password. The same problem will happen here about logging in from another location.

Once again, you would need to spoof their IPs to bypass that.

Keylogging, Phishingare are good methods for acquiring the info, but bypassing Facebook is where the problem comes.

Keylogging, Phishing are still good methods to attack other websites, but Facebook became smart enough to make it a bit more difficult for "hackers" to take over accounts.

Do you have questions, comments, or suggestions? Feel free to post a comment!
