13:21 Key generator for gift cards itunes store | |
| It turns out that about six months ago, Chinese hackers managed to find an algorithm to generate codes from gift cards iTunes Store. Almost immediately cards on sale. Apparently, the first time, trade was in small quantities, which allowed fraudsters to conduct business for a long time. But now, turnovers have grown a thousandfold: At the moment, China's biggest online shop in Taobao sell thousands of these cards. You can buy them and replenish your account balance on the iTunes Store right now (until the old algorithm is not blocked). True, the site uses its own payment system, so that the citizens of Russia to carry out the purchase is not so simple. The shop owner Taobao said that at first the 200 dollar card sold for 320 yuan ($ 47). However, soon he has a competitor who used the same source code. Due to dumping prices had dropped to 11 yuan ($ 2.60) per card. But even at that price, profitability remained high since the flow of customers is rapidly increasing. Incidentally, although the shop owner always knew about the existence of key-generator, the store itself is clean before the law because it houses only for sale, and direct code card seller transfers for IM. Now, when information leaked to the press, Apple will have to change the algorithm. Not quite clear what to do with the already sold cards, because they can not just cancel, because among the owners of a lot of legitimate buyers. Via Outdustry | |
