I wrote three articles on Cookie stealing and now adding one more article to this Cookie stealing section. We talked about How to hack Facebook account using Phishing. Today, I am gonna inform you the method to hack a Facebook account using Cookie Stealing. If you have not yet gone through my earlier Cookie stealing articles, please read them before you proceed further in this article on how to hack a Facebook account.
How to hack a Facebook account:
Facebook usually authenticates its user using cookies. So, whenever user logs in to his account, Facebook server sends a session cookie to user browser and this cookie is used by server to authenticate the user. So, if you are possessing the victim account’s cookie, Facebook will grant you the access to victim account.
Steps to hack Facebook account:
1. Using Wireshark or HTTP Debugger Pro, capture the cookie of victim Facebook account. Refer the Wireshark tutorial for more information on how to capture Facebook cookie.
2. Install Greasemonkey and CookieInjector script in your Firefox. Restart Firefox.
3. Now, go to Facebook.com. Make sure you are not logged in. Using keyboard, press Alt+C to see a text box. Enter the victim cookie you have copied in Step 1 in this text box and hit on Enter.
4. Now, simply refresh your Facebook page and you will find yourself logged in to victim’s Facebook account.
Update: Some of the readers found this hack not working for them. Friends, I tried this Facebook hack and is working perfectly for me. But, still if you are having problems, please read the feedback from hacker2012 in comments section. He has simplified the Wireshark cookie capture process. I guess this will help you to hack a Facebook account.
That’s it friends. You are now able to hack a Facebook account using Cookie stealing method. This method works perfect if victim is not using any SSL encryption i.e. HTTPs while logging in to his Facebook account. If you face any problem in this tutorial on how to hack a Facebook account using Cookie stealing, please mention it in comments.

Hey, Rajesh..But all users are login with HTTPs By default..! Sorry for that BUT I think this is not works…!
I rechecked this hack and found it working perfect for me. And about HTTPs, as far as I know, Facebook has integrated HTTPs only for login screen and is not using HTTPs for the whole session. Usually, Facebook drops HTTPs after logging in. That’s why, this hack works perfect.
Lemme know if you have any problem. Thanks for commenting. Keep visiting Techotoys.
