Readme

WhatsMyName

This repository has the unified data required to perform user and username enumeration on various websites. Content is in a JSON file and can easily be used in other projects such as the ones below:

whatsmyname

Tools/Web Sites Using WhatsMyName

https://whatsmyname.app/ - Chris Poulter created this site which draws the project's JSON file into a gorgeous and easy to use web interface.
- Filters for category and in search results.
- Exports to CSV and other formats.
- Pulls the latest version of the project's JSON file when run.
- Submit a username in the URL using https://whatsmyname.app/?q=USERNAME like https://whatsmyname.app/?q=john
Spiderfoot uses this in the sfp_account module. There is also this video showing how to use this project using the Spiderfoot Command Line Interface (CLI).
Recon-ng - The Profiler Module uses this project's JSON content.
sn0int downloads and uses the JSON file in the kpcyrd/whatsmyname module, see https://twitter.com/sn0int/status/1228046880459907073 for details and instructions.
WMN_screenshooter a helper script that is based on web_accounts_list_checker.py and uses Selenium to try and grab screenshots of identified profile pages.

Content

The https://github.com/WebBreacher/WhatsMyName/wiki/Problem-Removed-Sites page has websites that we have had in the project and are currently not working for some reason. We will retest those sites (in the future) and try to find detections.
If you would like to help with detections, we are happy to accept them via GitHub Pull Request or you can create an issue with the details of the site.

Command Line Arguments

There are quite a few command line options available

Check for the users yooper and maxim, defaults to outputing json to stdout, only returns the found results. python check_online_presence.py -u yooper maxim

Check for the users yooper and maxim, defaults to outputing json to stdout, returns the not found and found results. python check_online_presence.py -u yooper maxim -a

Check for the users yooper and maxim, defaults to outputing json to stdout, returns the sites where no matches were found. python check_online_presence.py -u yooper maxim -n

Check for the user yooper, on social sites python check_online_presence.py -u yooper -c social

Standalone Checkers

If you just want to run this script to check user names on sites and don't wish to use it in combination with another tool (like https://whatsmyname.app and/or Spiderfoot), then you can use the included Python 3 scripts as shown below. There is the web_accounts_list_checker.py (preferred) and the check_online_presence.py which will take MUCH longer to cycle through all the sites and it works a bit differently than the first one.

 $  python3 ./web_accounts_list_checker.py -u maxim
