Cloak Facebook In-App Browser

Hi everyone !

I used to work only with Desktop traffic so far, but for a new campaign I want to focus on Mobile only. When I was doing some research on my cloaking setup, I struggled with the Facebook mobile browser.

My money page is well cloaked but if the user click on the offer, he will be redirected to the final URL within the In-App browser. I suppose this way Facebook will know the URL of the offer, and this may result in a ban, right ?

I also suppose that if I use the attribute target="_blank" (open in a new tab/window) on the offer link that won't do the trick, because the user stay on the Facebook mobile browser. But maybe I'm wrong.

A solution would be to use an iFrame, but some of my offers page does not load with this setup. So, another solution would be to force the link to be open with the default browser of the mobile (Chrome or Safari), I think it is doable, but I need to investigate further.

What do you guys think ? Am I overcomplicating this?

Thanks in advance

You should google "Open intent chrome". This only works for android, but it opens any link you like in their favorite browser. Thus leaving FB Webview
