Facebook data
|
|
Fellow WHOers,
A serious crime took place just over two years ago.
An issue has come up about Facebook. Although I have a Facebook account I really do not use it at all and so don't know too much about it.
Is there anyway of actually downloading the logs of who befriended whom and who unfriended whom and at what time.
It seems that as soon as someone unfriends someone all the previous data is lost which I find difficult to accept (it disappears from the timeline but the data should be somewhere).
I have googled it but cannot seem anything that seems to fit.
I can promise you the crime was just about the worst crime that a Dad can stomach.
I don't need snide responses just ideas of where to look.
Thank you,
10th

Presumably police forensics can do this

You dont need snide comments? and you posted it on here?
Why not look in the FB FAQ?
And what was the crime?

Facebook has a log file now which is accessible from your profile, so it says who you searched for and stuff like that.
It goes back quite sometime, you have to be in the profile though and I don't think it covers Private Messages, which I guess is something you are after.

Top right hand corner when you log in, there should be a down arrow. Click on it and you should see 'Activity Log'.
Not sure if that will do it but there's also filter options on the left hand side and on of them is Friends. This seems to have info on when and who is befriending people

Thx Johnson,
We've downloaded the og but the one thing is doesn't want to show is the Friend tab for some reason.
Hence why I'm looking for other ways of getting the data.

It's unlikely that facebook could/would release the data, if it's been deleted and the person unfriended the it seems often it is lost. what you need is a hacker.

tunwhu,
It seems that if you unfriend or are unfiended then all the data disappears relating to the friendship but it still must exist somewhere i would think.

i doubt your average man in the street/posting on WHO would know where to get that mate.
i was reading the other day that a NY fireman/part-time hacker read about the ched evans case and he hacked the victim's facebook and found the deleted 'im gonna take my friends on a holiday when i win big' messages which could form part of his appeal. i dont think it's a simple process unfortunately mate.

Hi Trevor,
That's exactly what I'm looking for.
I just don't know where to start.

you're probably best on some sort of hackers forum mate, im guessing you would have to pass on the details of what happned in order to get someone to help you and if you did so this could hinder any prosecution i imagine.

Not heard that. Not sure how use much use those messages would be. I think the useful ones would be the fb statuses she allegedly put up (and deleted) on the night it happened.

Trial has already happened so I think we're good for that.
It was part of the defence strategy and we couldn't prove who befriended whom and when only who unfriended whom!
We're looking for that initial evidence.

Surely any kind of hacking that WOULD allow this type of data to be found would be a breach of some FB data protection act?
Hence rendering it totally useless and damaging to any "case"?

if the trial has happened and therefore in the public domain there's no reason not to disclose the details of the case.
unfortunately without the details a lot of people might think you have ulterior motives.

not sure about jurisdiction but if the obtaining of personal information that can prevent a crime or help in the detection of one then it can be legally allowed in the UK i think mate.

Why did your lawyers simply not demand FB supply the information??
