There is a function that allows you to see hidden friends in VK. It has become a replacement for complete privacy of contacts. Now you can hide only part of them, and leave the rest freely available for viewing. But technology does not stand still. And today you can see what a social network user hid from prying eyes. There are at least two ways to help reveal its secret. They will be discussed later in the article.
How else to see friends on a closed page
We often add the same friends on different social networks. If you are registered in VK and Odnoklassniki, then you understand perfectly well what we are talking about. Find a person’s profile on OK, Facebook, Instagram or other services.
Use whatever information is available on the closed page displayed. This could be a place of work, study, etc.
Link to the group in VKontakte on a closed page
Links will be useful in finding the necessary data. The same methods can be used to view subscribers of a private profile on VKontakte.
Perhaps you want to know your list of friends without adding them as friends. Let's be honest - this is almost impossible. We warn you that if you look for prohibited methods, such as hacking VK, hacker services, you will most likely not only waste time. But you can also permanently lose your page or the money that scammers will demand for their services.
There are several ways to see hidden friends on VK
First of all, I note that there are no highly effective methods for identifying the hidden friends of any user on VK. When searching on the Internet, you can find several online resources (for example, 220vk.com, vk.city4me.com and others), as well as several mobile applications (for example, “Hidden Friends of VKontakte” in the Play Market) that offer to identify closed the user's friends on VK by entering his VK address or ID in the appropriate line, and then clicking on the search button.
The truth is that it quickly turns out that these services (programs) need a login and password for your VK page, after which the creators of these products get direct access to your personal data. After this, you can expect various troubles when working with VK - theft of your page, failures in its functionality, and much more.
At the same time, those who decided to entrust their login and password to these services were usually left with nothing, since these services successfully failed test tasks with fake accounts, without finding a single friend hidden by the user. Therefore, I would not trust my login and password to these resources, and even more so I would not recommend sending paid SMS to unknown numbers 9000, 0611, 3313 and 6996, which could end quite disastrously for your mobile account.
How to write to a private profile on VK
In addition to the general profile closing function, VKontakte has the ability to change individual privacy settings. Anyone can prohibit writing him private messages. But sometimes you need to quickly contact a person whose page is closed. In this case, do the following:
- Open the blocked page;
- Click on the button Add as Friend;
Click on the Add as friend button to write to a VK user - Then press the button again Add as Friend and select A new message.
Select New message in VK
Now you can create an email and send it to the user. Which page did not have such an opportunity before. You can see the friends of a private VK profile if the user still adds you as a friend.
Find out hidden VK friends using the service: method 2
Another sure way that helps to break through hidden friends on VKontakte is to use a special service.
Of course, this method is not very legal. After all, if a VK user hid his friends, he had his own reasons. And if another person tries to view them, it turns out that he is invading the personal information of the page owner. However, a third-party service works successfully and helps you find what is hidden from prying eyes.
To see the list of hidden friends on VKontakte, you need to do the following:
- Go to the website https://vk.com/com220, where the service used to check the hidden friends of users is located. The page will open. Below is a list of what can be found on the site. You need to click on the first link, which will help you see who any user is hiding.
- The next page opens, where in the appropriate field you will have to enter the ID of the person whose hidden friends you want to see. Click on the button next to it that says “Search for hidden friends.” This causes the service to begin the process of scanning the user's page.
- The program requests access to your account. Click “Allow” if you want the search to continue.
- Upon completion of the scan, you will be able to find out the hidden friends of the VKontakte user. The photo shows that three such contacts were found.
If the service does not find anything, there will be no contacts in the hidden friends section.
Thus, viewing the number of hidden friends on VKontakte, as well as finding out their accounts, is completely easy.
However, a user who decides to take such actions must understand that his page can be scanned in the same way. After all, the service is available to everyone. What then is the point of hiding friends if everyone can see them with the slightest effort?
How to see hidden VK friends: 1 way
Using this method, you can not see who exactly the user has hidden, but rather see the number of such contacts. The method is simple and, most importantly, does not violate the rules of the social network.
On a note! The performance of this method can be checked not only on someone else’s account, but also on your own account. Only what the vk interface offers is used. There are no hidden services involved in this case.
So, to see hidden friends on VKontakte, you need to do the following:
- First of all, you will need to go to the page of the VK user whose hidden friends you want to see. Near his avatar you can see the main horizontal menu. Select the “Friends” section. After clicking on this link, a general list of the user’s friends will open, and their number will also be indicated.
- In the upper right corner, you can open the “Options” subsection, and then filter the general list of friends by selecting male representatives. Then look at the number of contacts after filtering. Remember the number.
- Do the same if you find women among your friends. The steps are similar to the previous ones: specify the appropriate filter in the parameters. See how many of your friends are female.
- In principle, that's almost all. Now you need to add both numbers (number of men and women). And then subtract the resulting amount from the total number of friends indicated in the first photo. This will be the number of hidden contacts.
If, after summing up the number of men and women, the result is a figure equal to that reflected when viewing the total number of friends, the user has no hidden contacts.
It is worth noting that this method, although simple, does not provide any guarantees. That is, you do not need to perceive the resulting figure as an exact value. However, the higher it is, the greater the likelihood of having hidden VKontakte friends.
On a note! It is worth checking first whether there are deleted or blocked accounts in the VK user’s contact list. If the answer is yes, then you should calculate them when doing the calculations. After all, after deleting or blocking an account, the system does not distinguish the user by gender. Thus, the filter does not take them into account.
