I heard recently that it's possible to "steal" the remarketing data from competition website. I don't know if it's about finding GoogleAds/analytics/meta/tag manager ID's. Do you know anything about it? The result here is to have targeted group and cheaper traffic (as far as I understand it)
 
Yeah, some folks scrape pixel IDs and mirror them for lookalike targeting—risky but done in the wild.
 
Yeah bro it’s possible with pixel IDs but kinda risky if not done right.
 
You can't actually steal their remarketing data, but some try to mimic it by using tools to find their ad or analytics IDs, then build lookalike or interest-based audiences. It’s more about targeting similar behavior, not getting their exact list. Not foolproof, but can work if done smart.
 
Yeah it’s called pixel hijacking or piggybacking. You scrape their tag IDs, clone the structure, and try to hit the same audience. But it’s shaky now—platforms tightened up. Used to work better years back, not so clean anymore.
 
That’s just called pixel ID scraping — you can see their IDs but you can’t hijack their actual audience, only build lookalikes or target overlaps on your own campaigns.
 
Yep it’s possible by injecting or piggybacking others’ pixels/IDs, but it’s risky as hell and can burn accounts fast if you don’t cloak it right.
 
Yeah, people talk about it, but “stealing” pixels or tags isn’t legit and can get you banned—better to build your own audience for safe targeting.
