Many apps, extensions, and websites advertise that they have the ability to show you a list of Facebook friends who visit your wall.

These software are cheating you

You won’t get anything by installing them. If you’re lucky, they won’t do any harm, but if they do, you’ll end up downloading malware onto your device. They’ll steal your information, mine Bitcoin in the background, and do a whole lot more. Consider this example:

At first glance, you might be fooled by this Chrome extension with over 3,000 reviews and almost 4 stars. But when you open the comments section, you will see the truth:

All the comments say that this extension is completely useless. So you should not install extensions or related software just to know who has been looking at your Facebook wall.

There is no reliable way to get information from Facebook unless they want it to be public, like LinkedIn. LinkedIn lets you see who has looked at your profile.

Furthermore, these extensions will require access to information from your computer, which if you do not read carefully and install, the risk of privacy is very high.

I accidentally installed one of them.

In case you have installed any related extensions or software, please uninstall them immediately.

Next, to be sure, change your Facebook password and create 2-layer security (if you haven't done so already).

Note, there are websites that require you to install their web browser and log in to your Facebook account on it… to see who viewed your Facebook. Don’t do it because those browsers are not safe and you can easily lose your account.

Method of checking code on Facebook page

There is a method that is circulating on social networks: open the source code of the Facebook page and look for the code "InitialChatFriendsList". Obviously, the long numbers are the identifiers of other Facebook accounts, and people believe that these are the accounts that have viewed your Facebook.

However, this is not correct because the above accounts are the list of accounts displayed in the Chat section.

Readers should be careful of the above tricks to ensure the privacy of their information and personal information.
