What is the benefit of hacking someone's Facebook account?

Maybe to post something funny as a prank, or perhaps to catch a cheating partner, or a parent might want to check out what their child/teen is doing online.

Question

How do I know someone's Facebook email address?

Anthroposia

Community Answer

You don't need to know their email. Their Facebook username or ID should be enough to do the job. You can find out their username or ID when you go on their profile and check the link, there should be their username and ID (some numbers).

Question

If the owner of a profile is logged in and I have access, how can I see their password?

Community Answer

Try installing a keylogger into the computer and having him log in again, or look into password sniffing and configuring SSLstrips and bypassing HSTS.

Most of the time, you will get banned permanently or for a certain period of time but nothing too serious. That said, if you break into it and use it for illegal purposes. Facebook may not be the only ones getting involved.

Question

If I reset someone's password, can he still use this account or not?

Luke Erickson

Community Answer

Facebook will send the victim an email stating that their password has been reset. They can get back in from there. You are in luck if they don't actively check their email, as it might get buried over time.

Question

What should I do if I didn't choose any trusted contacts before my account was hacked?

Luke Erickson

Community Answer

If your account was hacked, go to your email account and look for "Facebook Password Reset." If you can't find it in the first page, search for it (most emails have a search option). There will be a button or a link in the message saying "I didn't change my password" or something along those lines. Click that, and you will be able to get back into your account through there.

Question

Facebook is asking me for a code. What should I do?

Community Answer

The code will usually be sent to your phone number (via text) or email address. Enter the code that you receive and continue the process. If you can't get the code, you're out of luck.

Question

How do I access someone's Facebook password if their account was logged onto my phone but got logged out?

Community Answer

You can use the same steps listed in the article, but that's it. Someone logging into their account from your phone before doesn't make it any easier to get into their account yourself.
