A Russian hacker has discovered an easy way to get in-app purchases on the iPhone and iPad for free.
The process is potentially damaging for Apple's iOS developers whose main revenue comes from the paid upgrades.
Users just have to download security certificates from the hacker's website and change a setting on your device's wi-fi connection.

The hacker, who calls himself ZonD80, also posted a video on YouTube announcing his method and explaining how to do it.
But the clip had been removed today and instead displayed a message saying it was no longer available 'due to a copyright claim by Apple, Inc.'

Cydia allows the installation of third party software which allows you to download cracked apps, meaning if the app has not been cracked then you cant download it. Cydia itself does not allow the install of cracked apps, all Cydia is, is a software which allows people to download apps that have been rejected by apple. The russian hacker has actually fooled the device into downloading an app without paying for it, and it seems that this doesn't even require a jailbreak.
