@MusleNerd Exposes 2 iOS 6 Jailbreak Frauds

On twitter someone new has popped up "@JHerthop, he claimed that he was working on an iOS 6 and iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S jailbreak.

Some of his Tweets

"Enjoying some nice hacking with some pizza. Definitely the jailbreak for iOS 6 is near finished. ;)"

"Readers: iPhone 4S untethered jailbreak is almost finished :)"



Then after a couple days he sent out this

 "Bad news. Apple will probably be releasing iOS 6.0.1 along with the ipad mini Tuesday. Possibly a very important exploit will be patched :("

People were now catching on to "@JHerthop because jailbreakers usually work very quietly not tweeting everything out.

 "Let's see a video of your jailbreak."

"Make a video showing the device jail broken and actually show the device, not an emulator on a computer monitor"

"Can u supply a screenshot of the application? Of at least Cydia running on your iPhone?"

After he got these requests he made a donation website called Claash.

"Can u show like Passbooks or something else opening? I don't see it there, I just need enough proof to donate big"

"Listen man, I really think you should stop with your whole #claash bs! It's not helping anyone, and very misleading!"

" LOL I think you're stalling..."

"Show us proof! I want to believe you, but no one has seen anything."

" Please just stop buddy. your not fooling anyone but yourself."




Then the big guns came out @MuscleNerd got in the situaltion

 "It's almost always teenage boys who pull this stuff... it's really is quite hard for anyone to come up to speed on all the stuff to create a JB today... [and] when they do (Comex and @pod2g are good examples of this) they don't make some big splash on Twitter first. They work quietly... if you read @mdowd's or @pod2g's stuff or look at Comex's github, it's incredibly technical, and a 15yo simply isn't going to do that unless they're a genius, but a genius wouldn't act like this on Twitter"

Finally he gave up
