Just a short reminder, that you can easily brute force Facebook Accounts using the chat interface (XMPP) and thc-hydra (a very fast brute force tool, supports wordlists, too).

Since version 7.x XMPP support has been added, so be sure to have the latest version. (It compiles for XMPP out of the box, so even if you don’t have all the libraries for SSH/MySQL/… it might work.)

Here is an example of the command line:

hydra -C /tmp/username_pw_combo_list.txt -s 5222 -f -V -S chat.facebook.com xmpp

Thats it, but beware to throttle your attacks. After some wrong logins Facebook will block you from using XMPP. It will look like this in hydra:
