Man in the Middle Attack
The so-called Man in the Middle Attack is the fifth type of facebook hack.
This method is done when you are close to your victim. You can gain access and hack facebook account if your victim is tricked into connecting to a fake wireless network.
Then you can steal his login information by doing MITM attack. There are many tools on the market which you can use to create a fake Wi-Fi network and they usually do not cost a lot.
You should know that as soon as the victim gets connected to the Wi-Fi network you have provided to him, you can route the network traffic to the fake facebook login page.
When he enters his information you can gain control of his username and password and perform a successful facebook hack.
For protection against Man in the Middle Attacks you should never connect to unencrypted wireless networks.
Also avoid connecting to networks with odd or suspicious names, no matter if they are open or free to use.
If you face difficulties when connecting to your own network, check the nearby networks and see whether someone made a copy of the name of your network.
Also if the router asks for password information for performing some kind of internet update, then it is likely that someone is trying to get access and steal your personal information.
