0:14 hey everybody it's dean decosta of the
0:15 search authority and today we're going
0:18 to look at my tool i call it sourcing links
0:20 links
0:22 it's a playoff of something that was
0:25 created by mr michael basil who is the
0:27 open source intelligence book i highly
0:29 recommend you get it and basically he
0:32 created this thing of oats and tools
0:35 um very similar to this in fact um
0:37 when i got access to it i noticed a
0:39 whole lot of stuff wasn't working and
0:40 then there was a lot of stuff that
0:41 needed changes and all a bunch of stuff
0:43 so i asked him about it and he said sure
0:45 go for it knock your socks off um so
0:47 what i did i changed it i'd say i
0:49 probably kept about 20 of it and then i
0:52 added about 80 including some brand new
0:54 sections that he didn't have because
0:56 this is more recruiting orientated so
0:58 let's get going down the road here we're
1:00 going to start with search this is just
1:01 a general search engine search where you
1:02 can search whatever you want i'm going
1:04 to put in the word java you populate all
1:06 decide which place you want to search
1:09 whether it be google bing whatever
1:11 emails if you have an email address
1:12 you're not sure who it belongs to or you
1:14 want us find out again populate all and
1:16 boom boom boom boom like i said some of
1:18 these were here from michael's a lot of
1:20 them i actually put in here or i cleaned
1:22 up and there you go so let's do as an
1:25 example let's pick on one let's do um
1:27 let's pick on
1:28 that's them
1:30 and open it up and you give it a second
1:31 or two or three or four it says oops
1:32 humanity check
1:34 sometimes it does that and there we go
1:36 right there very first one is me i even
1:38 have says i'm on facebook got my email
1:40 the next one is
1:42 it could be me too but my old dress it
1:46 is me as my adjusted as my wife so boom done
1:46 done
1:49 um so there you go that's that one next
1:50 up is facebook i'm not going to go into
1:52 these but there's a whole bunch of ways
1:54 to search facebook whole bunch of ways
1:55 to serve twitter
1:57 excuse me search twitter instagram
1:58 instagram
2:00 linkedin of course you need to be signed
2:02 in for the top section real names now
2:04 this is cool you have the real name of
2:05 somebody now so let's say you're on
2:07 linkedin find somebody trying to find
2:09 info you could put their name here now a
2:10 lot of times it's going to be more than
2:11 one person so you got to kind of find
2:13 another way to determine which ones
2:15 which a lot of times they list when they
2:16 graduate high school or when they
2:18 graduate college you can make some
2:21 logical presumptions of age based on
2:23 that which is always helpful so let's do
2:25 uh two people search for starter one so
2:28 obviously there's seven of me
2:30 uh now my last name is actually
2:33 two words decosta but most systems don't
2:35 accept it that way so you gotta do one
2:36 word that's why i did so let's see top
2:39 person 56 um if you look at my linkedin
2:41 profile you would know i'm not 56
2:44 unknown and plus i don't live in maine
2:45 here we are right here
2:47 view details we are going to come over
2:48 here and view the human test because
2:50 lord knows i have to be human
2:52 uh and i'm looking for a truck
2:54 keep in mind like i said i'm i i'm not
2:56 seeing very well right now and i got to
2:58 do it twice evidently evidently they
2:59 don't think i know what a truck looks
3:01 like after all these years 50 some odd
3:03 years i don't know what truck looks like
3:05 anyway and here we go validation it's me
3:06 here's a whole bunch of phone numbers of
3:08 which all but
3:10 actually they all were me at one time or another
3:11 another
3:12 and then there's a bunch of emails
3:14 that's me that's me that's my brother
3:17 that was me that's me that's not me
3:19 that's me so most of them are me this
3:20 one here is related to a social site
3:22 that i've been on but i don't do
3:24 anything with it anymore
3:27 so there you go so moving on down usernames
3:29 usernames
3:31 this is the idea that
3:32 human beings are creatures of habit if
3:34 they have a username they use for
3:36 facebook linkedin twitter whatever
3:37 they're going to use in other sites and
3:39 this lets you see if whether the site
3:41 say username is being used and they can
3:42 go to those sites to see if it's the
3:44 same person we're not going to go into
3:46 it telephone number same thing telephone
3:47 telephone telephone
3:50 images basically a image search you'll
3:53 find that um
3:55 these some of these work much better
3:57 than um
3:58 than just plain old google so like one
4:01 of the things i do is i prefer search terms
4:02 terms because
4:04 because
4:06 i want to sorry i want to know
4:08 you know like if i put my name in there
4:09 is dean decosta there so let's go ahead
4:11 and do that to dean and we already know
4:15 it's going to be two words uh and i do
4:17 not have a populate all feature for this
4:19 bottom bunch so you're just gonna have
4:21 to go and paste so i'm gonna grab a
4:24 couple of these we'll do a twitter
4:26 and then a pic search we'll do those so
4:28 let's start with pic search
4:30 based on dean de gaza and boom there's a
4:34 bunch of now see that is me
4:35 the rest of them are not me but the
4:37 first one this one here is me so what
4:39 would happen if we twerty or just
4:41 separate the last names this one site
4:43 might work better that way no we're
4:44 getting my cousin from portugal who
4:46 plays on the portugal national soccer team
4:48 team
4:50 okay so stick here but it doesn't matter
4:51 you did find me so that means you can
4:53 find other places on that let's go with uh
4:54 uh
4:58 the google the google and boom like
4:59 those are all me that's me that's me
5:01 that's me that's me i don't know who i
5:03 don't remember who did that that's me
5:05 that's me boom boom boom you get the
5:07 general idea so there you go done over
5:09 next document suggested document search
5:11 engine as we know most resumes are
5:13 written in
5:15 one of a few formats ie
5:17 pdfs docs
5:20 rtf's text whatever we're going to
5:21 populate all and we're going to go out
5:23 there under the pd of apps and let's see
5:25 if i send you pdf resume android
5:27 developer well guess what if we come
5:29 down here there's android developer
5:31 resumes now what i would do here and you
5:32 come down here there are more is and
5:34 probably get rid of the word sample and
5:36 example but that's okay
5:39 we you get the idea pasting sites these
5:41 are sites where
5:43 um developers usually use them to
5:44 temporarily put information and then
5:47 they usually get try to uh they usually
5:49 uh get rid of it but in a lot of cases
5:51 they don't so we're gonna put down java
5:54 gmail and then developer and we're gonna
5:57 click and boom right there very first
5:59 one shell script java i don't see an
6:02 email there are five of them there's one
6:04 right there boom boom email
6:05 so there we go
6:07 communities are the lesser-known
6:08 communities um
6:10 don't laugh at ebay i put my resume out
6:12 there once got job offers i just did it
6:13 to see what would happen locations
6:15 locations
6:16 we're gonna skip this session because
6:17 that's where you're gonna spend most of
6:18 your time then we're gonna do word
6:19 lookup just basically in case you don't
6:21 know what a word means you basically
6:23 punch it in and decide we'll do java as
6:24 a tech term
6:26 and there you go hot java is a high
6:28 level programming language uh java is
6:30 similar to c plus plus blah blah blah
6:32 blah blah blah
6:34 sorry i kind of not here's the how-to
6:36 which is where i let you guys know that
6:38 some of this came from michael basil's
6:40 and links to other pages and information
6:43 i have my own books everything and then
6:44 here's where you're going to spend your
6:46 time this is the um
6:48 the ps2 resistance the mic drop whatever
6:50 you'd like to call it this is where it
6:52 all happens so we're going to put in the
6:54 word java
6:55 and we're going to put in the word java
6:57 developer and we're going to populate so
6:59 let's start with x-ray zoom we're going
7:02 to x-ray zoom and we're going to look
7:04 look at all those java developers now i
7:04 know you're thinking well i don't have
7:06 emails and phone numbers if you pay
7:07 resume you're only getting their work
7:10 stuff i mean let's get real guys come on
7:12 let me help you out first name dot last
7:14 name for oracle we can figure this out
7:16 pretty easily and of course you can use
7:17 instant data scraper to scrape all the
7:19 data get it out put it wherever you want
7:21 and you're good to go let's move on down
7:23 the highway from zoom info i'm not going
7:24 to hit the mall i'm going to hit few and
7:26 let's go to this one this is facebook
7:28 now this one is interesting because i'm
7:31 picking on um
7:32 amazon i'm trying to find people at
7:34 amazon and so i would automatically when
7:36 i do this search is go to the end and
7:38 remove that but keep in mind these are
7:40 searches that i'm pulling up are what i
7:41 call base searches you can once you're
7:43 in you can change them to anything you
7:45 want this is just to get you started
7:47 um and now all of a sudden we're going
7:49 to get a few more people we got seattle
7:52 we got engineer we got that now the big
7:54 thing here what's interesting is because
7:55 it is facebook usually you're not going
7:59 to get things like tech skills like java
8:00 it's just not going to happen because
8:01 that's just not the way to do it so i
8:02 would actually get rid of java one of
8:04 the reasons why i
8:06 picked to pick on amazon is because most
8:08 of their developers and engineers are
8:10 java people that's what they do so now
8:11 let's open up
8:14 bam 1900
8:16 people who are engineers seattle mainly
8:18 software and i can guarantee you they
8:20 have java because they work for amazon
8:22 that's how you can get around that in
8:23 facebook you kind of pick companies that
8:26 are very specific technologies so let's
8:27 move on down the highway here i'm not
8:28 going to look at all of them it's going
8:30 to look for you let's do linkedin so
8:32 here we're looking for amazon developer
8:34 in this case we have the word developer
8:35 again in java so that doesn't really
8:39 hurt us and we got 45 000 so there are a
8:41 boatload of them so what we can do if we
8:43 really want to be cute about since we
8:44 really don't need that second developer
8:47 let's go ahead and add in gmail.com i
8:50 didn't spell it right sorry
8:53 gmail.com and let's get rid of the
8:54 second developer we don't need five of
8:56 them and let's try it again now now we
8:58 got one bound three another who have
8:59 gmail email addresses somewhere in their
9:01 profile they may not be right here
9:03 visible you may have to go into them to
9:04 see them
9:06 not bad not bad at all
9:08 keep in mind you can also use bing
9:09 search these things so just because you
9:11 know you get this here it doesn't mean
9:12 you don't want to take that same exact
9:15 string maybe uh even though we do know that
9:15 that
9:18 it may be a little bit different in bing
9:19 because bing may not recognize all those
9:21 different uh
9:23 boolean operas let's go if you now see
9:26 again we got more um it worked it's
9:28 getting us what we want so there you go
9:30 and there's some gmail email addresses
9:32 right there so there you go moving on
9:34 down the highway um you'll see here boom
9:36 boom boom just a whole bunch of them i'm
9:37 not going to go into every one of them
9:39 because just use too many of them
9:43 diversity ones uh linkedin githubs query
9:46 zings ming bing skings contact out i
9:48 love me some contact out because i think
9:49 contract out is the most hilarious thing
9:51 in the world because it's a paid site
9:53 and let me tell you how hilarious it is
9:55 let's see dimitri
9:57 let's do
9:58 this one
10:00 here's why i think this is hilarious so
10:02 we got their name we know where they
10:03 live we know
10:05 where they work okay so we figure out
10:06 the working well here's this starts with
10:08 z ends with a d and it starts with a z
10:11 and ends with a d at there what do you
10:13 want to guess what their email is i'll
10:14 help you it's either first initial last
10:17 name or first name last name or first
10:18 name dot last name more than likely
10:20 could be underscore but that's rare look
10:22 the one above it z whatever five at
10:24 yahoo well what do you want to bet it's
10:27 some combination of his name five
10:30 gee that's you know not exactly hard to
10:33 figure out and they do that over and
10:35 over in every one they they do this
10:37 here's another one k six so
10:39 some do with the first name maybe last
10:40 name six there's only gonna be four or
10:42 five possibilities you test them you're
10:44 gonna find the right one let's do this
10:46 one nicholas whatever
10:48 this is easy starts with n ends with an
10:50 s well it could be first name
10:51 could be first name last name could be
10:52 first initial last name there's only
10:54 four or five combinations guys it's not
10:56 gonna be hard to figure out
10:57 um that's one of the things i which i
10:59 think is hilarious about contact others
11:00 they give you enough to figure it out
11:03 here's an even another one dimitri
11:05 kustov well g v
11:06 v k hmm
11:08 hmm
11:09 what do you think guys i'm going with
11:11 this one which is a gmail and i'm
11:13 betting it's first name last name first
11:14 name dot last name first initial last
11:17 name one of those three i already know
11:19 which one by the way i've looked him up
11:21 a few dozen times so there you go that's
11:23 how my tool works it can be found on the
11:25 ssar page basically you're going to go
11:27 to the ssar page which by now everybody
11:29 should know where it's at you're going
11:31 to wait till it opens because it takes a
11:33 moment to because there's so much stuff
11:35 um and you're going to come right down
11:37 here to buy which says myosin tool and
11:38 that's where you're going to get it from
11:40 if something doesn't work you let me
11:43 know and i'll figure out why i am adding
11:44 stuff to it from time to time although
11:45 not as much
11:48 this is the tool i am sharing
11:50 this i have my own version of tool which
11:51 is substantially bigger but has a lot
11:53 more ocean stuff in it
11:55 deeper oats and stuff but there you go
11:57 that's it that's my tool um
11:58 um
12:00 we're basically calling it what are we
12:02 calling it we're calling it sourcing
12:05 links i believe if i'm not mistaking and
12:07 that's it my name is dean decosta the
