2. An email is sent asking the casually login into that page.
3. once the casually logins through the fake page the casualities “Email Address” and “Secret password” is put into a content record.
#2 KeyLogging
Këylogging is the easiest way to hàck a facebook password. këylogging sometimes can be so dangerous that even a person with good knowledge of computers can fall for it.
A Këylogger is basically a small program which once is installed on a victim’s computer it will record everything which the victim types on his or her computer.

Session Hijacking can be often very dangerous if you are accessing facebook on a http:// connection. In a session Hijacking attack a hàcker s†éáls the victim’s browser cøøkíés which is used to authenticate a user on a website and uses it to access victim account. Session Hijacking is widely used on LAN.
How to Combat from Session Hijacking :
Using a Firefox add-on called Force TLS or if you use chrome, KB SSL Enforcer. Both will automatically redirect you to secure page of the sites you visit.
#5 Side Jacking / FireSheep
Sidejacking is a popular method for hàcking Facebook and email accounts. It’s the process of s†éáling someone’s access to a website, typically done on wireless public networks.
Firesheep is widely used to carry out sidejacking attacks and works when the attacker and victim is on same wifi network. A sidejacking attack is basically another name for http session hijacking but It’s more targeted towards wifi users.

#9 BOTNETS
Botnets are not commonly used for häcking facebook accounts. They are used to carry more advance attacks.
A botnet is basically a collection of compromised computer. The infection process is same as the këylogging, however a botnet gives you additional options in for carrying out attacks with the compromised computers.
#10 DNS Spoofing
If both the victim and the attacker are on the same network, an attacker can use a DNS spoofing attack and change the address of the facebook site to the address a attacker want.
