Track the exact location – There are more bogus location tracking apps and tools available online but if someone is using this, location and sensitive information get to hackers so don’t try unnecessary tools. In this article, I’m going to share with you one of the best social engineering methods to find someone’s location with a seeker tool.
What is the seeker Tool?
The concept behind Seeker is simple, just like we host phishing pages to get credentials why not host a fake page that requests your location like many popular location-based websites. Seeker Hosts a fake website that asks for Location Permission and if the target allows it, we can get: track the exact location
Longitude
Latitude
Accuracy
Altitude – Not always available
Direction – Only available if the user is moving
Speed – Only available if a user is moving
Along with Location Information we also get Device Information without any permissions :
Unique ID using Canvas Fingerprinting
Device Model – Not always available
Operating System
Platform
Number of CPU Cores – Approximate Results
Amount of RAM – Approximate Results
Screen Resolution
GPU information
Browser Name and Version
Public IP Address
Local IP Address
Local Port
How is this Different from IP GeoLocation
Other tools and services offer IP Geolocation which is NOT accurate at all and does not give the location of the target instead it is the approximate location of the ISP.
Seeker uses HTML API and gets Location Permission and then grabs Longitude and Latitude using GPS Hardware which is present in the device, so Seeker works best with Smartphones, if the GPS Hardware is not present, such as on a Laptop, Seeker fallbacks to IP Geolocation or it will look for Cached Coordinates. track the exact location
Generally, if a user accepts location permission, the Accuracy of the information received is accurate to approximately 30 meters track the exact location
Accuracy depends on multiple factors which you may or may not control such as :
Device – Won’t work on laptops or phones which have broken GPS
Browser – Some browsers block javascript
GPS Calibration – If GPS is not calibrated you may get inaccurate results and this is very common
How Hackers Track the exact location of anyone
Step 1:
First of all, we need to download the seeker tool so you just type the below command on your termux or Linux terminal
git clone https://github.com/thewhiteh4t/seeker.git
Step 2:
Now change the directory to seeker tool so execute the below commands
cd seeker
Step 3:
Now we need to install the seeker tool and required packages so run the below commands one by one
pkg update
pkg install python php
pip3 install requests
bash termux_install.sh
Linux
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3 python3-pip php
pip3 install requests
sudo bash install.sh
Step 4:
After that we need to run the seeker python file so run the following command in your terminal
python3 seeker.py -t manual
Step 5:
Then select the template which you want, in my case I chose the near you (0) option
Step 6:
Then login ngrok site and download the ngrok tool after that start the ngrok with the below commands
./ngrok http 8080
Step 7:
Now share the ngrok link to your victim, if your victim click your link means the web page will be this below image
Step 8:
Then the victim click the “Continue” button the location access pop up will be shown, the victim should be allowed the pop up otherwise we will not get the victim location
Step 9:
Finally, we will get the victim complete location details
