In spoofing attack an attacker make himself a source or desire address. As previously discussed DNS spoofing by using Ettercap, this time we will discuss SMS spoofing by Social engineering toolkit on backtrack 5.
What Is SMS Spoofing?
Short message service (SMS) is now available on mobile phones, I, You and everyone using SMS for the communication. SMS spoofing means to set who the message appears to come from by replacing the originating mobile number (Sender ID) with alphanumeric text/ another number. (Wikipedia).
I will discuss most of the theorical aspect here like how to perform SMS spoofing? How SMS spoofing work? And so many question.
SMS Spoofing Tutorial
Social engineering toolkit contain a SMS spoofing attack vector that can used to perform SMS spoofing. Requirement for tutorial:
Operating system (Backtrack 5 for this tutorial)
SET (Social engineering toolkit)
A Brain (important)
So I will use backtrack 5 to perform SMS spoofing however you can use Ubuntu, Gnacktrack, Backbox and other Linux or other OS.
1st step:
On the SET menu select number 7 that is SMS spoofing attack vector
2nd step:
On the second step “1. Perform a SMS Spoofing Attack”
