What do you mean by Grabify?
Grabify is a completely free web-based tool that helps in grabbing IPs or URLs and shortening them. IP grabbing means to get or grab the IP addresses of people. But you should know that Grabify is the only tool that helps you to do so. There are a lot of IP logging sites like this on the internet.
Gravity is preferable because of its simplicity and straight-to-the-point design. If you search on Google you will be able to see how popular it is and how widely it is used.
As per the recent records, it has 66,073,484 IP logs on its database. Also, they have been featured on three different episodes of MTV’s Catfish.
How Will you use Grabify to know Someone’s location?
It is a simple process like sending them a link. Grabify helps to abstract the whole technicalities and provides you with the information you require. If you want to know someone’s location by using Grabify you have to follow the steps that are mentioned below:
First, you have to find a link to any interesting topic. You must be sure that your friend or Catfish will not be able to control themselves to visit this link as soon as they receive this.
Then you have to move towards Grabify and paste that same link into the box that shows “Enter URL or tracking code”. This will be shown on the homepage.
Then you need to click on “Create URL” A pop-up will arise that will ask you whether you have consented to the terms of use or not. You have to click on agree. After creating your URL successfully you will be taken to a new page with a lot of information.
How Does Grabify Work?
Grabbify is embedded with a tracker and a logger in the link. When the targeted person clicks on the link the tracker and the grabber both are activated. They start to run in the background and collect information about the device. There are a lot of companies that do the same with us and we do not know about it. That is why a lot of hacktivists aim at privacy policies and laws in several countries.
