What ?
In this post i will help you to find Facebook Profile Using Facebook Image URL. You can use the same method if you a Downloaded image from Facebook. I am writing this post because of an experience i had on last day.
Last day i seen one pic in my friend's laptop, i really had an attraction to that Pic because of one man in that pic. It was Mark Zuckerburg. I asked my friend from where he got this pic, he told me that he got somewhere from Facebook. I copied that pic, and using this method, i traced back to the origin of this picture. So lets start to find the Facebook Profile. ( The pic i seen is shown below )

How to Find Facebook profile ?
# Step 1 :
and the name was : 376276_10100455456009301_1862865325_n
The last part of URL and the name Looks same. :)
# Step 2 :
Now it is "handle with care situation"
Now you have to copy the Second Number from the last part, Number after the First Underscore ( _ ) , in Both URL and Images Name it is same.
In Our case it is 10100455456009301 , This Number will be the ID of the image , Never-mind that
# Step 3 :
Copy that number and paste after http://www.facebook.com/paste_number_here
here it will be : https://www.facebook.com/10100455456009301
Then it will be redirected to the Image's album, Then you can simply find the Whose profile it was. We can check it here now, See the image below.

I our example case it was Mark Zuckerberg's Profile and it was nice to visit his profile again :)
I hope you have nice time when reading this article, if you have doubts on this. Please comment below.

ReplyDeleteI am sure that I would not have thought of focusing on that part of the url. Your explanation was made clearer by the screenshots. It is easy to follow and I don't have any questions.
This is useful information. It is said that "necessity is the mother of invention" and it is true in your case, in a way. You shared this because of the issue you faced. Now we will be able to use the knowledge. Thanks.
Thank You, @ Al@atlanticnet, it is nice to hear that my experience and my share helped You. Hope this will help others too :)

Hi Ron,
Deletethe url you posted is actually a pic inside some facebook group and that is having some limited acces. That's why the second number looks like that "371616992880562". we can't trace back the people inside a particular group. this method is only for the pic uploaded to some profile id.
I have tried this and cannot get it to work for the following image:

Why would that be?
@paul maybe the pic owner has set the privacy
DeleteThis is indeed cool, i never imagined every image has its profile account number attached to it. Thanks for sharing.

Tks :)
I don't think this works on a profile owner that has personalized a username ..... something like "facebook.com/mike_brown" ..... what's your opinion?
ReplyDeleteHello Anonymous ,
DeleteI have put the example of real Mark Zuckerberg, i think he put the username first in facebook than anyone else in the world ? so will this trick get work ?
