A group of Dutch and Moroccan hackers have
found a way to break into Apple’s security
system.
This has given them the possibility to reset
locked iPhones and cell them again. Stolen and
locked iPhones are often sold for between 50 and 150 dollar.
When unlocked, they can be sold for between 400 USD (#64,000) and 750 USD (120,000), depending on the model, which means a massive profit for the hackers selling the phones.
The hackers say that they have unlocked 30.000 iPhones, only in the last few days.
According to Mark Logan, security expert at
SurfRight, the hackers put a fake computer
between the iPhone and the Apple systems in
the iCloud that give permission to unlock a
mobile device.
It’s unknown when the problem of the hacked
iCloud will be solved.
