iPhone scam

A cybergang has created a malicious website that dangles the reward of being able to jailbreak an iPhone, but instead injects the device with click fraud malware. The threat actors use the legitimate Checkm8 vulnerability, which does allow some legacy iOS devices to be jailbroken, as the basis for their program, reported Cisco Talos researchers Warren Mercer and Paul Rascagneres. Essentially, the group set up a website called checkrain[.]com.
