It's a social engineering trick, fooling Facebook users. Facebook provides each user with a unique email address that can be used to set your Facebook status or upload photos via email. So, some smart guys are using this trick and taking advantage of this.

Surf Anonymously Online [Free]



It's easier than ever for the government, Web sites and private businesses to track exactly what you do online, know where you've visited, and build up comprehensive profiles about your likes, dislikes and private habits. And with the federal government increasingly demanding online records from sites such as Google and others, your online privacy is even more endangered.

But you don't need to be a victim. There are two ways, you can do to keep your surfing habits anonymous and protect your online privacy.

1) Ultrasurf
Ultrasurf is one of the world's most popular anti-censorship, pro-privacy software, with millions of people using it to bypass internet censorship and protect their online privacy.  It encrypts online communications and hides your IP from websites visited. Default opens Internet Explorer Browser.
Download from the official site.

2) TOR Browser
The Tor software protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit, it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location, and it lets you access sites which are blocked. Default opens Firefox Browser.
Download from the official site.

Both of these hide your IP address and your physical location. You can check by going to IP2Location before using and after using anyone one of these, you will come to know the difference of your IP address.

Also there are many IP hiding software’s and VPN services, but the above two are completely free. Also check out, How to trace anyone’s IP address.

Facebook has recently added the option to inform the sender when the recipient opens and reads the message in chat box.

If you do not like this feature, or better if you do not want others to receive a notification each time you view their messages, now that a developer has thought of you. And in fact possible to prevent the Facebook' read receipt sending the message, thanks to an extension of Google Chrome.

Prevent this.


We're talking about FacebookUnseen, an extension on the newly launched Chrome Store by one of the developers, which protects the privacy of users and not allow others to know when we open and read their messages. Just so with embarrassing moments and situations on Facebook: read messages that you do not want to answer but you have to do it because the other person knows that you have received the message, situations where we do not want to know that we are connected on Facebook.

Facebook Unseen protects your privacy by preventing others from knowing when you have "seen" their messages. Facebook chat's new "seen at..." feature presents a real privacy concern for many users.  Take control of your privacy with this lightweight extension that prevents the sender of a message from knowing when you read it.

-Prevent awkward social interactions.

With this extension we can take up a piece of our privacy. If you have any trouble or any queries, comment and let me know. Like and share this page.

Hack into Computers through Wi-Fi



A month back, I had purchased a new laptop Dell make. And around my surroundings I used to find many open Wi-Fi terminal. I could easily connect to that network and access internet anywhere in my house. So, I thought “Why not try to hack it!”  After making some research on the internet I found a simple and effective way to hack open Wi-Fi terminals.

In this tutorial i am going to show you how to access someone's Facebook, E-mail accounts, and many other accounts which is using the same Wi-Fi as you.

Requirements:-

Firesheep - A Firefox extension that demonstrates HTTP session hijacking attacks.

WinPcap - WinPcap is an open source library for windows packet capture and network analysis for the Win32 platforms. It includes a kernel-level packet filter, a low-level dynamic link library (packet.dll), and a high-level and system-independent library.

Follow these steps:-
1: Install WinPcap then drag the Firesheep add-on, and put it on the Firefox icon. Firefox will open and will ask you to install the add-on. Install it and restart Firefox.

2: Open the add-on (You can do it by clicking on View -> Sidebar -> Firesheep), then click on Start Capturing and it'll start capturing, and as soon as somebody logs in any account it'll show up the logs, and then you can access their account.

Simple, functional and very effective method to hack someone’s Facebook, YouTube, Gmail, MySpace, etc. account through Wi-Fi.

Enjoy Hacking...

Learn How to Track and Hide IP address?

An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label assigned to each device. Know your own IP address here. Here are two ways to track your friends IP address.

1st Method
This is the smart way to track your victim’s IP address, but requires registration only. If only the victim opens the mail, you will get the IP address.

Steps
1. Know your victim’s email id.
For e.g.:
 inferno19@gmail.com

2. Register an account here: http://www.readnotify.com/

3. Send mail to victim using your readnotify.com mail account. Before sending mail append ".readnotify.com" at end of victim mail ID.
For e.g.:
inferno19@gmail.com.readnotify.com

4.If victim opens the mail, his info will be tracked (IP address) and mailed to your account.

2nd Method
This is a best way to track your victim’s IP address. No registration required, but once you send a mail, the victim has to click on the links that are sent to him through mail.

Steps
1. Go to http://www.whatstheirip.com/ . The site will ask for your email. Enter your email and click “get links”.

2. You will be emailed a couple of links. The links when clicked will lead to a “page not found” and “invalid thread specified”. When one of the links is clicked it will email you back the IP of whoever clicked the link.

3. If it’s a victim that I have interaction with on a board or forum I always ask them “Is this you they are referring to in this thread”….the person invariably clicks the link and I’m emailed back their IP


Now that you have your victim’s IP you are ready and you can remotely shut down their computer or port scan them or hack their system or do whatever your dirty mind can think of.

You can also hide your IP address and perform safe hacking. Use Auto Hide IP address. I am providing you a full version click here.  Also Hide or Change IP address for free here.

Stop your Gmail account being hacked

Recently it has been widely reported, high profile users of Gmail - including US government officials, reporters and political activists - have had their email accounts hacked. This wasn't a sophisticated attack against Google's systems, but rather a cleverly-crafted HTML email which pointed to a Gmail phishing page. Victims would believe that they had been sent an attachment, click on the link, and be greeted by what appeared to be Gmail's login screen. Before you knew it, your Gmail username and password could be in the hands of unauthorised parties.

So, what steps should you take to reduce the chances of your Gmail account being hacked?
1.     Set up Two step verification
2.     Check if your Gmail messages are being forwarded without your permission
3.     Where is your Gmail account being accessed from?
4.     Choose a unique, hard-to-crack password
5.     Secure your computer

1. Set up Two step verification
The hackers who broke into high profile Gmail accounts grabbed usernames and passwords. So, an obvious thing to do would be to make Gmail require an extra piece of information before allowing anybody to access your account.
Google provides a facility called "two step verification" to Gmail users, which provides that extra layer of security. It requires you to be able to access your mobile phone when you sign into your email account - as they will be sending you a magic "verification" number via SMS.

The advantage of this approach - which is similar to that done by many online banks - is that even if cybercriminals manage to steal your username and password, they won't know what your magic number is because they don't have your phone.
Google has made two step verification easy to set up.

Once you're set up, the next time you try to log into Gmail you'll be asked for your magic number after entering your username and password. Your mobile phone should receive an SMS text message from Google containing your verification number.

2. Check if your Gmail messages are being forwarded without your permission


Gmail gives you the ability to forward your emails to another email address. There are situations where this might be handy, of course, but it can also be used by hackers to secretly read the messages you receive.
Go into your Gmail account settings, and select the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" tab. If your emails are being forwarded to another address, then you will see something like the following:

That's fine if you authorised for your emails to be forwarded to that email address, but a bad thing if you didn't. Hackers want to break into your account not just to see what email you've received up until their break-in. Ideally, they would like to have ongoing access to your email, even if you change your password or enable two step verification. That's why it's so important to check that no-one has sneakily asked for all of your email to be forwarded to them.

3. Where is your Gmail account being accessed from?
At the bottom of each webpage on Gmail, you'll see some small print which describes your last account activity. This is available to help you spy if someone has been accessing your account at unusual times of day (for instance, when you haven't been using your computer) or from a different location.

Clicking on the "Details" option will take you to a webpage describing the type of access and the IP address of the computer which logged your email account. Although some of this data may appear nerdy, it can be a helpful heads-up - especially if you spot a computer from another country has been accessing your email.

4. Choose a unique, hard-to-crack password


You should never use the same username and password on multiple websites. It's like having a skeleton key which opens every door - if they grab your password in one place they can try it in many other places.
Also, you should ensure that your password is not a dictionary word, and is suitably complex that it's hard to break with a dictionary attack. Don't delay, be sensible and make your passwords more secure today

And once you've chosen a safer password - keep it safe! That means, don't share it with anyone else and be very careful that you're typing it into the real Gmail login screen, not a phishing site. Check this video.

5. Secure your computer
You need to properly secure your computer with up-to-date anti-virus software, security patches and so forth. If you don't, you're risking hackers planting malicious code on your computer which could spy upon you and, of course, your email.
You always want to be certain that your computer is in a decent state of health before you log into a sensitive online account, such as your email or bank account. That's one of the reasons why I would always be very nervous about using a computer in a cybercafe or hotel lobby. You simply don't know what state the computer is in, and who might have been using it before.

Fake Facebook Dislike button spreads like Fire

Don't be too quick to click on links claiming to "Enable Dislike Button" on Facebook, as a fast-spreading scam has caused problems for social networking users this weekend.Messages claiming to offer the opposite to a like button have been appearing on many Facebook users' walls:


The scammers have managed to wall post Facebook's security to replace the standard "Share" option with a link labeled "Enable Dislike Button".

The fact that the "Enable Dislike Button" link does not appear in the main part of the message, but lower down alongside "Link" and "Comment", is likely to fool some users into believing that it is genuine.

Clicking on the link, however, will not only forward the fake message about the so-called "Fakebook Dislike button" to all of your online friends by posting it to your profile, but also run obfuscated Javascript on your computer.

The potential for malice should be obvious. But it remains something that many Facebook users would like, and so scammers have often used the offer of a "Dislike button" as bait for the unwary.
Here's another example that is spreading, attempting to trick you into pasting JavaScript into your browser's address bar, before leading you to an application scam or a survey scam:


OR




But you still haven't at this point been given a "Dislike" Facebook button, and the rogue application requires you to complete an online survey (which makes money for the spammers)

Add this Firefox browser add-on for all fake , spam & scam button developed by spammers and protect your system from all other fake/virus infected websites.

Protect your USB Drives from Viruses

Protect your USB Drives from Viruses
Want to protect your USB Flash Drive, iPod and other removable USB storage device from getting infected from virus?
Viruses spread firstly through pen drives when we use in schools, colleges and office. Files like autorun.inf and some other files which will later prevent the virus infection as these files being already created and cannot be deleted, so that 
virus or Trojan cannot copy files and folders or create them on your USB Drive when you connect your drive to virus infected PC.
