🎯 Free #OSINT tip of the day by Epieos.

🗓️ Our team is sharing an #OSINTtechnique that allows you to identify when an X profile banner was last updated.

1️⃣ Go to X
2️⃣ Go to a profile
3️⃣ Right-click on the banner and select "Open image in new tab"

The URL contains the #timestamp of when the banner profile was published:

pbs[.]twimg[.]com/profile_banners/44196397/👉1739948056👈/1500x500

🔎 The value 1739948056 is a #POSIXValue which can easily converted to human-readable date and corresponds to Wednesday 19 February 2025 06:54:16.

🧮 You can use #EpochConverter to convert a POSIX value into a date.
