An Interview with a Hacker

Hello Friends,
Most of you must have known this Ethical hacker as he has been a guest author for Hungry Hacker and posted 2 interesting  articles on Hungry hackers.

Yes! He is Rafay Baloch. For those who don’t know him, Rafay is an  Ethical Hacker, Internet marketer and a Web Entrepreneur. So I decided to take an interview of Rafay Baloch to know some of his secrets about Hacking and what all projects he is working on right now.
Hungry Hacker: “How did you get into the Hacking scene?”
Rafay: “4 years back I was one of the newbie trying to learn Hacking. I used to ask stupid questions to the people whom I admired as Hacker and you were one of them. Subsequently, as I went deep into this subject I found that there is no silver bullet to Hacking. I did a lot of research on many topics and understood what Hacking was.”
Hungry Hacker: “I am very pleased to hear that Hungry Hacker played a role in making you such a good Hacker. Tell my users some thing about Hacking that others don’t know?”
Rafay: “Lot of people are curious to learn Hacking but they usually don’t know where to start. Getting started is one of the most difficult thing in becoming a Hacker. If you get good start, it becomes a lot easier for you. For example If you fill air in a balloon you will notice that first two breaths are difficult to make once you make them it gets lot easier for you to fill rest of air.”

Hungry Hacker: “Yes. That is true and I think your book ‘A Beginner’s Guide to Ethical Hacking‘ is one of the best ways to Start. Tell us something about it?”
Rafay: “Well I wrote my book for absolute beginners who are willing to get in the field of Ethical Hacking. It is a complete package for all those who are curious to become Hackers. It covers a wide variety of topics which includes password hacking, windows hacking,  email hacking, social engineering and much more.”
Hungry Hacker: “What are the projects that you are currently working on?”
Rafay: “I have just launched my new ‘Facebook Hacking Course‘  and currently working on a new book ‘An Introduction to Keyloggers, Rats and Malware‘”.
Hungry Hacker: “What did you include in this Facebook Hacking Course and who all should take up this course?”
Rafay: “The reason why I formed this course is because everyday my users used to ask me questions like ‘How do I hack facebook‘, ‘How do I hack myspace‘ or ‘How do I hack orkut’. Technically the methods used by hackers to hack either a facebook account, myspace account or any other email account are same. Moreover, a lot of people have a misconception that there is a ready made program or software which can hack a password for you but in reality all these programs are scams and are there to take your money. So I decided to form a course which is basically a video set to teach people the exact methods used by hackers to hack your facebook accounts. So the users can protect themselves from getting hacked. In short this course is for those people who would like to learn how hackers hack email accounts and want to protect their own email accounts from getting hacked.”
Hungry Hacker: “Lastly, what would you like to tell all the newbie hackers?”
Rafay: “Newbies make this mistake that they pick any topic related to hacking try it once or twice after failing to succeed they rush to different topic, Instead stick to that topic and do not move to another topic until and unless you are finished.”
Hungry Hacker: “Thank you Rafay for your time and sharing your thoughts with us.”
