Hacking Myspace (legal hacks) AND Some incredible and Shocking information about hackers stealing accounts

False sense of security is infecting the community
Easy hacks most Myspacers don't know about
These to my knowledge aren't showing up in any books.
When you join myspace you can make your profile private, and its THE ONLY WAY to secure your friends list, your private anything really. If you can do it within the standard features myspace offers (privacy settings for example) then it cannot be bypassed, but if the user has to add code to his/her about me page then its absolutely a deception that this is protected. People draw a false sense of security when using these codes. I discovered it when I was trying to show my friends that nothing is truly safe unless its blocked in the code (from the sourse).
I was determined to figure out how to get at this list to see if I could get at a hidden friends list, pictures etc... Turns out that the codes for myspace pages is unprotected (i.e. not set to private by myspace not codes you enter).
Profiles are always broadcasted. This means as long as you have to enter codes into a box to make the feature happen its still there. It works alot like cable tv. The signal to all of the channels are broadcast in that wire but the box scrambles the unpaid for signals. Well myspace doesnt block anything when you add code, actually whats happening is the whole code comes in like nothing was changed, but your added code is piggie backed onto the myspace base code and its your browser that actually hides the features by telling the browser not to show it.
What happens is the code is appended to change this one word in various places: "Visibility" (so simple its almost an insult huh)
Un- Hiding the entire page! Hack
1. For hiding tables like your friends frame, for changing the look of the page they hide the frame and use CSS (cascading style sheets) to rebuild a new frame), or to wipe the whole page so you can make it look like a web page with no frame boxes. (this is also how they swap the picture to the right side not the left in some designs)
"style="visibility:visible;
then on any thing hidden (also this is all they do to hide anything is flip this code to
"visibility:invisible"
the codes you enter basically append (add to) the format code, as the format code says "visibility:show" or "vidibility:invisible" the codes you enter will add a new line below that updating the read to "Visibility:visible" or "Visibility:show"
Alittle obsessed with online Social networking?
Un-Hiding features in the page like friends, pictures, comments box etc..
1. Hiding friends
If you're cheating you may try to hide the friends so your boyfriend wont see who your talking to. He can hack this easily (sorry to burst your bubble) by
- a. Go to their page and click file> save as> whole page. Once their page is cloned to your desktop you open the html document in an editor and go to the code, do a search in the code from the tool bar (usually you can click edit find on this page) enter:
Simply the keyword: visibility then when it finds it just start typing (editing as its highlighted already) "visible" without the quotes. Change all invisibles to visible and this unlocks all hidden parts of the page :) brilliant.
- b. second hack is to use logic. Go to your own page scroll down to the friends box and you'll notice the box below the friends has a link to three pages.
View (screen name or avatar title of their page) ‘s friends: ALL | Online | New
Right click the link ALL and select "copy shortcut" this puts the url into your buffer. Open word pad and right click paste this into it. The url will look like this:
http://friends.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewfriends&friendID=53964414
that's my friends page for my account. To hack their page without even going to their page, just (well you do need to go for a second) go to their front page and on the top of the browser (in the web url box that shows you where you are it will look like this (this is my myspace page):
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=53964414
the only difference between your page and anyone else's is that last group of numbers the (for each page theirs a different url structure but the only different between your view friends, view pictures etc.. and mine is that number :
&friendid=3964414
get this url from going to their page all you need is the number on their url and change the one on this to theirs (their friendid # then hit go.. it will bypass their front page and take you directly to their friends all page :)
you can do this for pictures or anything else on their page.
How about HIDING email in your myspace mail box from prying eyes (say you get up and go to the bathroom)
Hiding the email in your box: a level 1 hack to hide from prying eyes like roommates etc.. (if their not attentive)
This one I found when a girl told me just how cute she thought I was and trailed this with over 200 apostrophizes ( !!!!!!!!! ).. this somehow confused the myspace page and bounced the entire text frame out of the whole format to way below at the bottom of the page. I realized this was the problem because back in the aol days we used this type of thing to create "Punt" email bombs that would knock people offline (because computer memory was so small an unsophisticated it filled their memory and aol software crashed)
To see it you just scroll down (a lot).. but to the normal myspacer this is not common sense so they see it looks like a blank email and will 1. try to reload the page 2. leave thinking theirs nothing in the mail.
Annoying intrusive layouts taking over "Home" button to trick you into going to their site
Removing all those annoying advertisement links to the layout authors site, (some are unnecessary like tricking your "home' button into taking the visitor to their page, this is invasive, I can understand giving them credit for their work but this is uncool.
To remove the gif's /jpg's or links do this:
Same as view source above only search for their .com i.e. freesourcecode.com but a lot of these are needed urls, to find the ones for the particular gif you do this. On your page you right click and click "properties" then copy that url to your buffer (Highlight right click copy) then paste the url into the search box (as the keyword use the whole gif location url) and it will find it. All you have to do is hit del on your keyboard when it finds it, you remove the url nothing loads, problem solved.
The home button is the same way only you're looking for a different code that usually comes right after the home link code what they do is put a transparent picture over the home button so you can right click the area over the home button and get the url you'll notice if this is there that when your mouse goes over the link a square will show up (on pages especially with effects where mouse overs make pictures change because this is a picture it will make it fade like any other! You delete it out the same way.
More to come as I remember them.. I put this here not to humiliate those using the code to hide their friends etc.. I put this here to make you aware that this is NOT safe, as anyone can bypass it easily, so you shouldn't think you can hide anything unless myspace does it for you in the privates screen in edit account settings. I learned about the number when I used a template that added the other pages to the front page (neat huh?) and had to enter that number into several codes to make it work. They turned the whole page into a big camera which was neat, but it didn't function too well, looked pretty cool though.
Save music without software on myspace Music...
Scary
Turns out the hackers have figured out how to exploit an account without needing the log in credentials. What's scary is just opening a hacked page will infect your account and hijack it. Below are videos on all of this and links to the informationI found.. simply shocking. turns out the hacker program that steals accounts is REAL. If your hacked/hijacked go here for the fix.
to avoid this DO NOT open spam mail from people you dont know.. they can redirect you inside the email or if they link you somewhere they can bomb you that way, the way their doing it though is by your checking out their myspace profile. Just opening their profile infects you!
to see this program in action youtube has a bunch of kids showing screenshots (its impressively scary) I had a bunch on here but they kept being shut down so I'll just let you find them on youtube keyword "myspace hacker"
Now something that scared even me (sort of)....and I dont scare easily...
hmmmm
O.k in looking for some hack vids for mysapce I came across some interesting ones.. Apparently theirs software circulating that can wihtout the user having any skills hack into your myspace friends (they have to be your firends) so be careful who you befriend :)
theirs a forum where they get you to sign in and to become "leet V.I.P." your asked to jump through hoops (I think to make page clicks and set up this authors downline of some scam (didnt go in just read comments of this video).. they tell unsuspecting kids they can get this program (it really exists theirs alot of news sotes talking about it. Just google "myspace hack") to get them to click ads or somehting.. funny at worst..
300 friends added at once? interresting vids
- Hacking myspace accounts through flash exploit!
apparently myspace is no longer safe :) sorry. - Myspace hacker busted
sort of.. - MySpace's Tom's Account hacked
The new exploit was used to hack Tom (myspace creatr) and spam was sent to all 300 million users :) wow.. glad he wasnt on my list.. his spam probably got accts compromised.

I just submitted this story for you on Digg....you should see increase in traffic for this hub in the next couple of days.
Wow, cool information, doubt myspace appreciated it though.
You have truly confounded me, I was a little naive, now considerably worried.
What a tremendous hub of knowledge.
I hope I never upset you.
Thank you
:) *evil grin* hehe
Excellent HUb! Guess that would apply to other social networking sites too? Thanks for the info.
And here is the easy way to view hidden content. Using Fire Fox click (view - page style - no style)
Wow thats a new one I love it!
This a real eye opener.Thanks
Hector
Good research! Tks!
Someone reading this page asked me a question in email and I thought others could benefit from the answer:
i came across your page from this site(link to this page was here) i got a question, how on earth did someone manage to leave comments on my page when my page is set in private and i didnt even add her as my friend?
My reply:
theirs a hacker program circulating that allows them to log into your account using a flash exploit, this flash program can open if one of the people on your friends list got hacked and they could log into it at any point and your on THEIR list..
they just log in and find you run your ip address through the program and access yoru account. The second way is they have a flash bomb that if they get hacked and you just click into a friends profile with the flash bomb installed (they get hacked and it overwrites their profile with the flash file refrence loading it which redirects you to their page then infects you, but since your profile is unaffected (I assume) then this isnt it)..
In my research I saw their was also a way to bypass the friend filter by using a certain format in sending the message to you.
for example if they format the URL a certain way myspace.com thinks you are a friend and have access to their account features like comments etc.. I don't know alot about it but google myspace hacks and you'll find what you need, I saw these discussions in forums i.e. google how do I hack a private myspace account etc..
I didnt test any of these things out as I value my account, if you use your own account to do this even if you just use a url encoded correctly this violates tos.. some people I think create fresh accounts and do it but realize your IP address is the same no matter what account you use and they will find out its you if you do this on the same internet connection (unless you use dial up which changes IP every time you log in to your connection.. with most of the world on broadband IP addresses dont change..
but I impore you to go to google and start looking up the subject to learn how to protect yourself..
This is amazing. What benefit do people get from doing this to people's MySpace page? So, when it is suggested to change your password all time, I am guessing this does not really help you either? Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and educating everyone. It is a very sad eye opener.
Just wondering how I can get someone's I.P. address and access their private myspace account? someone did this to me and I was just wanting to know how they did it and how I can show them that I am just as smart as they are!!
well. You could create a hubpages account and lure them into a hub to leave a comment which will give you their IP address *smiles* for example I have yours because you left this comment. Getting someone's IP address is really not that hard, knowing how to use it or decypher it is another story.
I'm no hacker and I wouldnt teach you how to break into someones account if I knew how, and if you do what they did are you any better than they are? Karma would get you as it will get them. I will tell you this however.. if you google "hacking myspace" you can learn just how they got into your private account. I will say this though.. its not that they got your password, or even violated your IP address or any other information, it was probably due to a bug in myspaces infrastructure that allows people to bypass their privacy protocols.
Myspace uses URL formatting as a tool for accessing accounts. Based on a certain format of using the url language you can bypass even a private account without breaking into it. You can't do anything damaging this way nor could they, other than scaring someone into thinking they got hacked. Truth is they just bypassed the filter and were able to look like they were your friend and thus allowed to leave a comment.
I warn you though this is against myspace TOS and if you use it they will find out as it sets off a red flag and your account will be terminated as a result. No warnings.
If your worried about them hacking you because they left a comment on a private set account, don't. This is a simple url trick. They often set up a new account and do this. But be warned that myspace knows that people do this and if you use the same computer or your home computer the IP address will be the same and will set off a red flag.
Not only will your fake account be terminated but the IP address will link your actual account to the other and thus you'll lose both and any future access to creating an account. The only work around is using dial up so your IP address is dynamic. If your on broadband you can't really fake it.. well theirs a way but...
Lots of great info. Some of it quite shocking!
Great informative hub with some enlightning and much needed info.
Jerrico, nice hub, Great tips, I was on myspece for a while, but it got to be more annoying than useful.
is their away to segragate what friends are invisible and which ones arent I know some people that dont want to show up on other peoples cause they dont like them or what not can you have a list of some invisible friends and some that are not
no the only way to do that is to get off their list by deletig them off yours.
Great Hub thanks for the info
is there a way to do a fake truth box or hack the truth box to find out who is sending them?

whats a truth box?
It's this idiotic (in my opinion) "anonymous truth" app. that you put on your page and your friends can tell you how they really feel about you, etc.
However,
not many people have used it yet and don't know how it works.
That's why I made a fake one that leaves comments instead so you can find out who said what about you (if they are stupid enough to fall for it)
the fake truth box code doesnt work :(
the truth box image doesnt appear and it doesnt post comments
Did you remove the *'s ?
Because alot of my friends have used, myself included.
Also, did you forget to put your friend id in "value=" ?
yeah i removed all the stars and i put my firned id in replase of the x's
i looked over it and thought maybe you needed " after the http link so i added it but it still doesnt do what its supposed to
did the code get changed when you posted it or something? cuz i know some websites change the codes a bit
please fix it, ive been looking for a fake one for a while now and youre the only person ive found
