iPhone Unlocking is Just a Scam.
A new website has surfaced, preaching the great gospel of unlocking and jailbreaking. iPhone Infused alleges that there is a way to legally avoid 2 year contracts, outrageous fees, and access thousands of free applications and ringtones! The site promises that for $40, you too can jailbreak and unlock the heck out of your iPhone.
Now, just consider the absurdity of the website’s claim.
MacNN reports that it’s a total scam according to an iPhone Dev Team member, a reliable source considering that the Dev Team gave birth to the free Pwnage Tool.
There’s a video up at Infused’s website that is supposedly “proof” their “simple solution” will work. The Dev Team member, who maintains that the site is a hoax, says the video is just a re-edited, reversed version of one he recorded.
The site looks a little hoaky itself, despite it's incredibly trendy design. Word to the wise, if the iPhone Dev Team thinks you should steer clear, they're probably on to something.
