Workaround: A Russian hacker has found a method that allows iPhone and iPod users to get in-app purchases for free

You are clever, the criminals are cleverer!

Why not recruit the hacker [1] as Facebook [2] did some time ago.

Story:

A Russian [3] hacker has discovered an easy way to get in-app purchases on the iPhone [4] and iPad [5] for free.

The process is potentially damaging for Apple’s [6] iOS [7] developers whose main revenue comes from the paid upgrades.

Users just have to download security certificates from the hacker’s website and change a setting on your device’s wi-fi connection [8] [9]

The hacker, who calls himself ZonD80, also posted a video on YouTube [10] announcing his method and explaining how to do it.

But the clip had been removed today and instead displayed a message saying it was no longer available ‘due to a copyright claim by Apple, Inc. [11] ….

For the time being, Apple will have some respite as Zon80′s says his website will be unavailable for ‘two or three days’ because his servers are down.

The hacker’s workaround comes days after it emerged that older versions of Apple’s operating system, OS X, was being attacked by Java-based [12] malware.

Apple have been unavailable for comment.
