I've heard that the Bible is full of fulfilled prophecies but haven't heard what they are.

There aren't any, at least not without taking the original prediction out of context and applying it to something else.

Prophesies were foretold about Jesus coming to the earth, they all came true.
The prophesies that have yet to be fulfilled are the ones about the great tribulation that is to come upon the earth.
(Matthew 24:21) -Â "for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again."
The Bible says at 1 Thessalonians 5:3 - Â "Whenever it is that they are saying: “Peace and security!” then sudden destruction is to be instantly upon them just as the pang of distress upon a pregnant woman; and they will by no means escape." These are two prophesies that haven't been fulfilled yet. There are others. Revelation has more.

Example: Jesus before 33CE in Matt ch. 24, spoke of Jerusalem's destruction and specifically the temple. He gave his apostles the signs they would know when it was near.
He said when the disgusting thing came, they were to flee to the mountains. In 68CE the Romans showed up and fought their way into the temple. For no reason that we have found, the Romans left.
Although Jesus died 35 years before, those who remembered what he said ran for the mountains to the south.
They obeyed the order to not gather their belongings, just leave. Robbers on the trail did not bother them because they had no money. That saved their lives.
69-70CE the Romans returned and wiped out Jerusalem and the temple.
The prophecy was fulfilled. Those who took notice of the prophecy lived. Those that did not died.

Jesus was going to be born from a virgin, - Isaiah prophesied in Isaiah chapter 7 verse 14 Say's therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bare a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
I Isaiah told this to the people way back in his years before it really happened. This is what a prophecy is.

There are many. The most obvious is the coming of the Messiah. Less well known are the fulfillment of many of the promises relating to the restoration of truth in the latter days. For more info on these, see the official website of the restored church of Jesus Christ: www.lds.org

Jesus predicted, that,
" Watch out that you are not deceived..Many will come in my name (Jesus) and will say that I am he (the Christ), Do not follow them."
Are you aware that there are hundreds of religions carrying his name and saying he is the c
Christ?
Jesus said that,
"Do you think I have come to bring peace? No, but division."
How many religions do you think worships Jesus Christ but are divided in their concept of believing in him? And since the inception of religions under his name, have you ever heard if there was ever a time that it was peaceful? Are we not still keeping our fingers crossed to a thing that will never be achieved under his name?
How about disasters like unheard of sickness like Ebola, Hiv, sars, fmd,. Unusual floods, tornado, tsunami, volcanic eruptions and kind of wars explained in the book of Revelations. Were it not happening now? It may not fit to fill in words in this section but you have to know the current world events and you will find many things predicted being fulfilled.

The prophesies in the "Old" Testament were fulfilled in the "Old" Testament. They were meant for the immediate future, not some 2000 years down the road!
The child born to the young woman (Christian translation "virgin") was King Hezekiah.

Clearly you haven't read the bible. I'm not Christian but I can clearly see a number of prophecies...as vague and improbable as they might be...
