Hi, I wanted to ask the whole community a question, since once they told me they could h4c|< imvu accounts with just the home page, so I do not know if it's true, I the only methods I know of people who steal accounts They are the pishing through social engineering saying that you enter by credit or by contests or to verify your accounts or houses like that, but what of the homepage is not true.

Maybe they are using social engineering with their homepage, we can use iframe linked to their homepage.
There are another way using bruteforce (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brute-force_attack) with a list of password and a software.

I'm not a professional, I only have the basics, but i'm sur at 95% that they can't h4c|< with their homepage (without social engineering).

Yes ... there are other ways to h4c|< into an account via the HP.

The h4c|<7r could write up javascript to do one of the following:
* hijack your browser
* force you to download malware
* steal stored passwords

None of the above would require you to click on anything on the HP, nor would you have to enter in any of your account info. Simply visiting the HP would be enough to compromise your account.

This is why you should always run a script blocker to block unknown scripts.

Forgive the question, but is there any recommendation for the illiterate of us in that aspect? Like, do the script blockers google will give for our browsers do the work?

EDIT:
NEEEVERMIND, just found this topic, will go with it :)

Yeah, it is true, when people click on the homepage of the user it redirects them to a page that makes you login again that looks exactly like Imvu.

@TheKing123



this is another possible way but will require the user to enter their login credentials. <- this method specifically is called phishing

what Don Von is talking about is different. u wont even need the user to enter any credentials scripts can be made to do all the stealing once a homepage is visited. (don v is very wise, listen and use a script blocker / adblocker).

Yeah, Ik about that too, they do it all the time they give u a link and if u click it, they h4c|< u, they can do it with the homepage too.
