Can you obtain the password
of an
e – mail account?
This is one of the big questions commonly asked daily
among internet surfers. |
|
|
|
There are many who claim to do so with the help of some
internet program, but not knowing to use the program properly,
did not get results because they subtract, or
steal a password
for Hotmail, Yahoo or Gmail is completely false; besides, we
must be very careful when downloading programs that offer you to
be able to obtain e – mail passwords, as these may contain some
type of virus that can cause failure or awful damage to your
computer.
Stealing passwords using some type of program is not
possible or true, due to the heavy security of the companies
that are in charge of providing
e – mail service such as
Hotmail,
Yahoo, or
Gmail, which spend large sums of money to
have safer networks.

The only way I can get the password of a user, may be
due to neglect made by him or her when entering their
e – mail data. However, there are various
methods to
obtain the password of another user, among which we
find the following:
|
|
 |
Method of virtual post: This method is one of the
most often used by surfers who want to grab the
e – mail account
of another user, since it is the most effective one. It works
perfectly if the e – mail contact whom we
subtract the password is just waiting for some mail. Normally the cards are sent
through gusanito.com, tuparada.com, love poems, free technology
offers, contests, fake Facebook, Hi5, or YouTube. |
|
However, it is very easy for you to detect when there is a
user wanting to take hold of your password, because at the
moment you want to open the card or whatever it may be, you will
see a pop – up box, where the user is prompted to enter his or
her password. On the
Internet there are many websites offering
this kind of service, some with greater certainty of obtaining
the password without the victim been aware of it.
Executable file method: This one is also very common method to
obtain the password of any contact. It works when the victim
does not have a good antivirus installed in his or her computer,
otherwise one will detect it. Simply send a file via Instant
Messenger like Messenger, Yahoo!, etc., which is able to bring
the victim to a page where he or she will asked to enter his or
her password again, since it ended the session on the account,
and when the victim enters the password, it will be sent to the
person who sent the message.

Method of the Social engineering: It is very effective as
long as the person who handles it knows how to use this
method. Computer security experts often use this technique
because it can manipulate any user information through
misleading the victim. Commonly takes the fragile state of
the user in order to get valuable information. However,
this form of threat is well known by people who are used
to store important information, so this method has major
drawbacks if not used properly.
Finally, we recommend using a
good antivirus, which will
help us protect valuable information such as email
password and account. We must also take caution to the
messages that we receive via e – mail, enabling spam
options and other resources that are offered to us by our
mail server. Furthermore, we must create a password with
more characters and change it regularly.
