Apple icloud Hackers (Turkish Crime Family) One arrested, whats the truth.

Do you remember my post on the Turkish Crime Family? They claimed to have access to over 600 million iCloud Accounts, and they have threatened Apple with a mass wipe of these accounts and the devices associated with them should Apple not pay the ransom they’ve demanded (100,000$ / team member for 67 members). Apple has responded back in March with a message in which they tell the hackers that Apple isn’t going to reward cyber criminals for breaking the law. Apple has also declared that they’ll be working with the police to identify the hackers – and they did. One of the members was located in London, United Kingdom and was arrested by the UK Police for hacking threats and blackmailing. The guy, a 20 years old teenager risks 14 years in prison for the cyber crime.  So, the Turkish hackers aren’t that Turkish at all, rather British. The idea was smart, by calling themselves “Turkish Crime Family” everyone would have thought they’re automatically Turkish, but the police is way smarter than that.
