400 iTunes Accounts Hacked, Apple Admits

Submitted by admin on Wednesday, 7 July 2010No Comment

“Apple said a hacker who manipulated sales data on its online App Store broke into the accounts of about 400 iTunes users in the process, according to a published report.

Clayton Morris, a blogger and host of Fox News’ Fox and Friends, said Apple divulged the information to him in response to his queries about the matter. ‘Apple told me that an extremely small percentage of users, about 400 of the 150 million iTunes users—that is less than 0.0003% of iTunes users, were impacted,’ Morris wrote in a blog post Tuesday. “
