Try to connect with his account and use the password lost and ask to send a email to recover the password, you will probably see part of his mail account or the entire mail.

That’s called Social engineering I won’t help you much more since we have a Code of Conduct

You should get out more if you think that’s social engineering… :p

wikipedia:

“Social engineering, in the context of information security, refers to psychological manipulation of people into performing actions or divulging confidential information. ”

(i checked on other sites but it’s the same definition everywhere i searched)

right ?

feel free to tell me if it isn’t the only definition (“in the context of information security”)

That hurt @dloser :p

How do you call it so? I think it fits in Social Engineering not like sending a message to a person to get his 2FA token but still.

I might be wrong I said Social engineering without even checking if it does fit in this category.

I always aim right for the heart, @DIDIx13**. ;)

But yeah, the “social” part kind of requires that you make other people do stuff, as the definition that @sorrox posted also shows. I don’t see how just requesting a new password on a site comes even close to that, but perhaps I misunderstood what you meant.

It seems to me to just be some information disclosure that you’d exploit. I doubt any big site does this, though. Then again, they’ve been known to do stupid things…

d is right, that’s more Information Gathering than Social Engineering

@sorrox if you still have questions about anything, feel free to ask :)

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘\’‘ at line 1
