Facebook Hack: Hacking Facebook Account Password through Password Recovery Feature

Previously, we discussed 4 methods of hacking Facebook account password – using Phishing, Anonym Mailer, Cookie Stealing & Keylogger. Today, I am back with another method of hacking Facebook account useful for those whose victim does not check his/her emails regularly. This time we will use the Password recovery feature of Facebook. I have given all the details of hacking Facebook account in the article below. Please move further.

How to Hack Facebook Account Password???

Facebook has introduced a feature of using “Recovering password using Trusted Friends”. In this feature, if we have lost our Facebook account password, Facebook will send the security code to 3 friends. We have to ask those 3 friends for the security codes and after entering them, we can reset Facebook password.

So, in this hack, we will use this feature for hacking Facebook account password. So, you have to create 3 fake accounts and make sure that your victim adds them as his friends. So, your 3 fake accounts must be listed in your victim’s Friends list. Now, if we use the above “Trusted friends” feature for resetting victim’s Facebook password, Facebook will send the security code to our 3 fake accounts and we can easily hack Facebook account. You can use Social engineering skills so that your victim will have no doubt while accepting your fake account as his friend. This is the only tricky part of the hack.

Also, the fake accounts must be at least a week old. Once you are done with fake accounts, move to the steps below.

Hack Facebook Account Password in 5 Steps: -

So, let us start with the steps for hacking Facebook account password.

1.   Go to Facebook.com and hit on Forgot Password link to get this page: -

2.   You have to enter the email of the victim, or even the Facebook profile name will do. Facebook will search for profile name and you will be shown the account. Hit on “This is my account”

3.   On the next page, hit on “No longer have access to these”.

4.   You will be prompted for email address. Enter your email address here and hit on “Submit”.

Facebook will ask you ask you to answer the Security question. No worries here. Just enter the wrong answer 3 times and you will move to this page: -

5.   Now comes the real hacking part. After hitting on Continue, Facebook will ask you to select the 3 Trusted Friends. Your 3 fake accounts (created previously) will be listed in the Friends list of the victim. Select those 3 Fake accounts. Facebook will send security codes to these Fake accounts (which are our accounts). Now, enter the 3 security codes. Facebook will send Password Recovery Email at your email you’ve entered in Step 4. You can easily change password of your friend’s account.

Thus, you are successful in hacking Facebook account password of your friend.

Note: The victim will be emailed about the password change. So, this method of hacking Facebook account is useful only for those whose victim does not check emails regularly.

Important Update: - 

Note: - The Victims account will be locked for 24 hours after this password change and also the user’s old email address will receive a notification of the password change including the names of the 3 friends who were involved in this password change. Yes you guessed it right, you could also create 3 fake profiles and add them to your victims friends list first and then carry out this hacking Process.

How do i Protect Myself from This Attack ?

As you can see we easily Bypassed Facebook’s Security Question, There is No use of setting any security Question. If you haven’t Selected any Security Question on Facebook, Just sit back and hang loose, don’t Bother to set any. Just Register your Mobile on Facebook.

Note:- Its Important that you Register your Mobile on Facebook.

Unfortunately it is not possible to update or Remove your account’s security question once you have added one. So guys If you have had already added Security Question in your Account Settings, You are at Risk. So to avoid this attack, you will need to Update your ‘Account Security‘ In Account Settings.

1.   Go to Account Settings and Click ‘Account Security‘. You will See the Below Options: -

2.   Check all the Three options. When you check the third option called “Login Approvals”, Facebook will then add another level of Security to your account. ‘Login approvals’ is a security feature that requires you to enter a code that Facebook will text to your phone when you log in from an unrecognized computer.

3.   Never Friend or Accept friend requests from people you don’t know.

4.   If by chance anybody resets your password through this attack, your email address will receive a notification of the password change including the names of the 3 friends who were involved in the password change. You will then have only 24hrs to act on it, So Always Check your email every day.

5.   In case if you are planning to go for a vacation, Never Update your Status saying you “I will be offline for some days” or similar to that. Your vacation is enough for a hacker to compromise your account.

I hope you now well easily use this method of hacking Facebook account password. Just make sure that the victim will add your fake accounts as his friend. This is the only tricky part of this Facebook hack.
