To search for a user
python3 fisherman.py -u user user.name user2.name2
The username must be found on the facebook profile link, such as:
https://facebook.com/name.profile/
It is also possible to load multiple usernames from a .txt file, this can be useful for a brute force output type:
python3 fisherman.py --use-txt filename.txt
Some profiles are limited to displaying your information for any account, so you can use your account to extract. Note: this should be used as the last hypothesis, and the target profile must be on your friends list:
python3 fisherman.py --email youremail@email.com --password yourpass
Some situations:
- For complete massive scrape:
python3 fisherman.py --use-txt file -o -c -sf
With a file with dozens of names on each line, you can make a complete “scan” taking your information and even your family members and will be compressed into a .zip at the output. - For specific parts of the account:
- Basic data:
python3 fisherman.py -u name --specify 0
- Family and relationship:
python3 -u name --specify 2
- It is still possible to mix:
python3 fisherman.py -u name --specify 0 2
- Basic data:
