The identifier is formed from the prefix “id” and a set of numbers. Indicated after the VK.com website address. Here's an example.

We receive this question via email to our feedback address almost several times a day.

The reasons for such curiosity are different, some were deceived, others are blackmailed. Below we provide several examples of queries (styles and punctuation are preserved):

“The scammers from this ID address: ...... are threatening and extorting money from my father, if you have the opportunity to tell me their ip, I will be grateful to you, then I will contact the police.

P.S. If you need my passport or my mobile phone, I will provide you with everything.”

“An unknown girl scammed me on Skype and is now demanding money under the threat of sending an intimate video to all my friends on VK.

The police said that even if I wrote a statement, no one would seriously look into this matter.”

“Tonight someone created a page on VK, and they started insulting me and my relatives.

We contacted the police, they told us that they could not do anything.

Help us identify the IP of the hooligans. they are threatening the children in the photo.”

“Good afternoon, Dear project administration, I am a widow with many children, I was advised to turn to you for help, since law enforcement agencies are inactive on their own.

For three years, my family has been harassed by an unknown person: he threatens, insults, spreads false information discrediting honor and dignity, registers me on dating sites and distributes my number and address with offers of an intimate nature.

Threats are backed up by actions, for example, on 5/08/15 an arson was set. I'm trying to figure out who is behind all this.

Is it possible to find out the IP address by the profile ID in VK? I have suspicions about one person.

Is it possible to report if the IP address of the user who is threatening me and the user I suspect is the same?

If necessary, I can send screenshots of threats and replies from the police department. VK ID of unknown person……. ID of the suspect in VK……… HELP PLEASE!!!”

In this short article we will try to clarify the situation a little and answer this painful question.

If you contact a local police officer who is trying to get rid of you and does not understand what is going on, we can advise you to find police department “K” in your city.

It is this department that investigates Internet crime.

But there is also not very good news: the likelihood that this department will take on your case is extremely low.

They handle larger cases involving banking thefts, hacking into banking systems, government websites, etc.

Why should you contact law enforcement? The answer is very simple. The IP address of a VKontakte user is known only to the administration of the VKontakte network and to no one else.

By law, this information cannot be shared with anyone other than law enforcement agencies.

Having this information, law enforcement agencies can make a request to whom the received IP addresses belong and thus obtain the real data of the person.

Only law enforcement agencies have such powers, and only by receiving and linking information from the VKontakte network and the Internet provider can one find the real location of a person.

ID is a unique number that is assigned to each user when registering on the VKontakte social network. The address to the page looks like this: https://vk.com/id410124186.

Subsequently, you will be asked to replace these numbers with any other combination consisting of Latin letters or numbers. But in any case, the page id will remain unchanged.

Surely most of our readers are registered and actively use the largest social network in Russia and the CIS, VKontakte, also known as vk.com. Many also know that any page (be it a profile page, group page, public page or meeting) has its own unique identifier - VKontakte ID.

And if previously the digital ID was always displayed in the address bar of the browser, then for quite some time now you can set a beautiful name of letters and numbers for any page, which will be displayed instead of the “sequence number”. But in some situations, we still need the digital identifier of a particular page, which is not so easy to find at first glance.

It's about what is VKontakte page ID what they are like, how to find out your or someone else's ID address in VK, as well as the ID of the public/group/meeting, you will learn today from this detailed instruction article.

What is a VKontakte id and what does it look like?

Before we figure it out, how to find out id the object you need on a social network VKontakte (vk.com) we want to briefly tell you about what an id in VK is, why it is needed, and what types this identifier is.

VKontakte ID is a unique identifier that any page on VK has: user profile, public page, group or meeting. The IDs of these pages are slightly different. The ID is assigned when the page is created and cannot be changed in the future.

Let's first figure out what IDs we need to know and how to distinguish them.

https://vk.com/ id 1234567890 - ID person profile

https://vk.com/ public 1234567890 - ID public page (public)

https://vk.com/ club 1234567890 - ID groups

https://vk.com/ event 1234567890 - ID meetings

ID includes only one of the above Latin words and numbers (and only numbers, not letters!).

How to find out your VKontakte ID

Most often, users need to look at their ID in vk.com. It couldn't be easier to do this. Your profile ID can be found in the address bar of your browser (if you have not set a nickname for yourself), or in your profile settings.

At first, all VKontakte users had only a digital ID, and there was no problem finding out yours at all, but for quite some time now everyone has been able to set a unique name for themselves, which is displayed instead of an ID in the browser.

If you haven't done this, just click on the link "My page" on the left side of the screen and you will see your ID in the address bar of your browser.

If instead of a digital identifier you see text in English, it means you have set yourself a beautiful address for your profile page. But it’s okay, in this case you can see the ID in the settings in just a couple of clicks.

Click on the VK profile name in the upper right corner and select the item in the drop-down menu "Settings".

Just below on the main settings screen you will see the page address you have set. Click the button "Change" next to him.

A field with the name will appear under the "Page Address" line "Page number"- this is your ID on the VKontakte social network.

Now you have found out your ID. But if it’s quite easy to look up your number, then in order to look up another person’s ID, sometimes you may need to work a little (just a little), and sometimes it’s no more difficult to do this than to find out your ID.

How to find out the ID of another VKontakte user

In order to find out someone else's ID, you need to do the following. Open the profile of the person whose ID you want to see and simply hover over his avatar. In most browsers, a pop-up address bar will appear in the lower left (or right) corner, in which you will find the person's ID.

In this case the ID is set of numbers after the word photo And before the underscore, i.e. 1234567890.

If your browser does not show a pop-up message on hover, then this is also not a problem. Click on the user’s avatar and in the address bar of the browser you will also see the ID of this profile, similar to the option above, after the word photo and before the underscore there will be exactly what you were looking for.

Everything can be made even simpler if you have a correspondence with a VKontakte user whose ID you want to know. In this case, simply open your dialogue in the "Messages" tab and in the address bar of your browser you will see the ID of this profile immediately after the letters "im?sel=".

As you can see, finding out the id of any user is not at all difficult. However, none of the above methods (except the last one) will work if you are on a person’s blacklist. What to do in this case? Let's talk.

How to find out ID if you are on the black list (blocked)

Sometimes a situation arises when you need to find out the ID of the person whose blacklist you are on, i.e. locked down. In this case, you can also view his ID, but it’s a little more complicated; to do this you will have to open the code of his VKontakte profile page.

Open the page to which access is limited for you, call the context menu by right-clicking anywhere on this page and select the item in it "View code"/"View element code" or similar, depending on your browser.

Enter the text in the search bar that opens using the page code "user_id". As a result of the search, you will see this text in the page code, followed by the digital ID of the VKontakte user, which is what we need.

As you can see, it is quite easy to find out the ID of any VK user, even if you are on his blacklist.

How to find out the ID of a public, group or meeting

The simplest thing in this entire instruction is to find out the public ID, group ID or VKontakte meeting ID. This can be done in many different ways, and here are a couple of the simplest ones.

Click on the avatar of the public/group/meeting and you will see the identifier in the address bar of your browser immediately after the word "photo-" And before the underscore.

The group doesn't have an avatar? No problem. Open any post on her wall and you will find the desired ID still there, in the address bar, this is numbers before underscore and after "wall-".

In the same way, you can view the ID by opening albums or videos of the group. As you can see, it’s nothing complicated; one of the proposed methods will definitely help you find out the required identifier.
