Let's recap what we have learned in this section.
The first step is always to gather information about your target.
You might be able to find their Facebook account, Twitter account, Snapchat account, or LinkedIn
account, or any other account.
And after you find these accounts, you might need to extract the profile ID or the member ID, which
is something that you are going to learn in future sections.
Next, you want to make sure to ask a lawyer or somebody that knows about the law.
That could help you to know whether downloading or possessing leaked or breached databases is illegal
in your country or not.
Next, you want to make sure whether the email address or phone number that you have gathered is actually
in a leak database or not.
So you want to go to haveibeenpwned, enter the person's email address or phone number to find if their
information are leaked online or not.
And if their information are leaked, then you can either use an online service to search for someone's
information within leaked databases like Dehacked, or you can download the leaked or breached database
and then use it to search for this person's information in the database.
Now, I have tried my best to blur or hide people's sensitive information because I don't want to expose
the online information, but these information are already publicly available and anyone can download
them and either use them for good or use them for bad, like spamming or doxing, etc. and I hope that
the information that you have learned from this section and from this course are going to be used for
good.
