I'm 99% sure I've wrote something on this before but using macchanger instead and I can't find it so here's how to change your mac address using ifconfig.

Put your interface down.

ifconfig <interface> down

Change your interface's MAC address.

Code:

ifconfig <interface> hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55

Bring your interface up.
