How to Hack the new "do a survey to get the answer" Facebook groups

How to Hack the new \"do a survey to get the answer\" Facebook groups
We all hate these new Facebook groups. It's become the trend recently to make a group promising an answer to a riddle or a funny picture if you just become a fan and do some sketchy online survey. Well no longer will you have to suffer this terrible plague. Today I will be teaching you how to hack these groups and get that answer, without getting a virus too.

Find a Group to Hack
Log on to Facebook. After playing FarmVille for a while and harvesting those darn pumpkins, go to your News Feed. More than likely, one of your friends has joined a group named something along the lines of "THE MOST IMPOSSIBLE RIDDLE EVERZ!!!11!" or some other h4x0rZ crap. Click on it.

I used to scroll down until it kept skitsin, going up and down all crazylike. Then id press Print Screen at the right time and copy it into paint. But that only worked with some of them.

I have the same type quiz to get a password, yet the password is defintly not located by viewing the sorce. I knew the password already and im just doing it to figure out where exactly the password would be located when theres no scroll down like you have listed. I can seem to figure it out I have 2 diffrent ones open looking for any diffrences. Could you pleasse look into one for me and if you could figure it out let me know how and where you do. Heres the link. http://www.saintspoker.com/freeroll-password.html Thanks in advance, MI77ERLITE

just did it. it was some image, though, and before you could see it, a popup telling you to take a quiz would get in the way, and wouldn't leave before you took it. easy. I just went to the source, typed in "jpg" and copied and pasted the picture URL into the address bar.

Honestly, I'd just ignore those stupid groups, but if you're dying to know

It's good advice for people who can't leave these alone. You don't play the farm thing do you?

I've heard people talking about these things, comparing scores, doing someone else's as a favour and commenting how much of an improvement they made... oh dear.

I'm glad that I'm not the only person to figure this out!
But it annoys me to no end that people fall for these groups so much. They are VERY annoying.
On the off chance that I do join one of these groups, I always leave right after I get my answer :P
Then again, I figure out a lot of these riddles out without the answer...

Nicely written up, but...you've got to be kidding.  This kind of stuff actually exists, and people actually spend time with it?!?  Good on you for reading the HTML, though!  Very old school.
