Facebook Account Status Hack - Methodology

There are tons of Facebook users who use a feature called facebook text in order to update a facebook status. If you have enabled this feature all you need to do in order to update your status is to type in your status and send it to "923223265".


However the idea behind this facebook Account status hack is to send a fake sms from your friend's number, therefore the facebook will think that the message has came from the legitimate source and hence it will update the victims Status.
