FB Email Extractor

FB is one of the largest and most popular social networks in the world. In 2020, FB was regularly used by about 2.5 billion people, which is just under 30% of the entire population of our planet. Undoubtedly, such a resource should not be overlooked by the modern marketer.

LetsExtract Email Studio is a powerful scraper that can extract email addresses, phone numbers, and other contacts of FB users. In addition, you can validate email addresses right from the program and run an email newsletter.

В настоящее время поддерживаются:

• Extracting of email addresses and FB IDs of your FB friends
• Extracting of email addresses and FB group members’ FB IDs
• Extracting of email addresses from FB ID list
• Парсинг сообщений на странице или в группе
• Извлечение списка подписчиков страницы/группы
• Извлечение списка групп, в которые входит пользователь
• Получение списка страниц, которые понравились пользователю

After several updates, FB parsing has become much more complicated. Now it is impossible to extract email addresses by keywords. However, some functionality is still maintained and you can use it in LetsExtract.

Note: FB API is not available in some countries. If you receive error messages, e.g. Invalid application ID (101), you need to perform the following steps:

• Create a new FB account and specify that you are located in the USA.
  

Unfortunately, now FB actively monitors accounts and aggressive parsing may lead to getting the ban. In this case, go through the account recovery procedure, or create a new one. Never use your personal FB account. To reduce the risks of being banned:

• Откажитесь от использования прокси-серверов, или используйте непубличные прокси-серверы или VPN.
• Никогда не используйте одновременно один аккаунт в LetsExtract и на другом устройстве, или в браузере.

Извлечение контактов членов групп

1. Run the tool by clicking the “Extract email addresses from FB” button, log in to your FB account.

2. Перейдите в интересующую вас группу:

3. Находясь в группе, нажмите на кнопку Scroll Down, чтобы промотать страницу вниз и отоборазить всех членов группы:

4. After the desired number of group members is uploaded, click the “Extract Members” button. In the pop-up window enter your login and password from your FB account once again and click the “OK” button. You will receive a message confirming the number of found members:

5. In the main program window, on the “Results” tab you will see the search results – email addresses, phone numbers, names, locations and other information. Unfortunately, due to the FB limitations, you can extract contacts only in 2-3% of all cases. This is because of the fact that users most often choose the option to hide email and phone. It is impossible to bypass this restriction. If you are offered a product that extracts a significantly higher percentage of emails – it is definitely a fraud.

Is FB Scraping Legal?

Questions about the legality and ethics of web scraping—particularly from FB—are common. Fortunately, using tools like LetsExtract Contact Extractor to gather publicly available FB data is generally legal in most jurisdictions, when done responsibly and ethically.

LetsExtract is designed to extract only data that FB users have chosen to share publicly: company pages, public profiles, business contact information, and other openly accessible content. It does not bypass privacy settings, access private messages, or circumvent technical protections. This approach aligns with well-established industry practices for market analysis, lead generation, and research.

Why is This Legal?

• Collecting Only Public Information: LetsExtract Contact Extractor interacts only with content openly available on FB —never with data hidden behind privacy controls or authentication barriers.
• No Circumvention: The software does not attempt to bypass Facebook’s technical restrictions, login requirements, or security measures.
• Common Law Practice: Courts worldwide—including in the US and Europe—have consistently held that collecting and analyzing information put into the public domain is generally lawful, so long as no hacking or unauthorized access occurs. For example, US courts in hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn ruled that accessing publicly available profiles does not violate anti-hacking laws.
• Compliance with Data Protection Regulations: The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and similar regulations worldwide do not prohibit web scraping per se, but place obligations on how personal data is handled after extraction. LetsExtract users must always use scraped data for lawful, legitimate purposes (such as research or business contact discovery), inform end-users when appropriate, and avoid any misuse such as unsolicited spam.
• Ethical and Technical Best Practices: LetsExtract strongly encourages users to throttle their data requests, respect FB's rate limits, and follow ethical guidelines to avoid placing undue load on FB's infrastructure.

Compliance and Responsibility Matter

Web scraping is a foundational practice for open data analysis and competitive intelligence. As long as you only collect data that FB users have made public, do not circumvent technical barriers, and process the data in compliance with privacy laws and FB's terms of service, your use of LetsExtract Contact Extractor is within the bounds of the law. Always ensure that your actions are both compliant and respectful: collect only what’s public, use data responsibly, and keep up to date on regulatory changes.
