iPhone Hacks Allows Stealing of Bank Details in Europe; USA Next?

Looks like another hack has hit jail-broken iPhones in Europe again. This time, the worm attacks “jail-broken” phones and redirects ING bank’s customers to a lookalike site with a log-in screen. Currently the Netherland folks who are using their iPhones for internet banking with Dutch online bank are the ones being affected.

The new worm is more serious than the first because it can behave like a botnet, warns F-Secure, and allows the hacker to remotely control and access the phone. In addition, all this can be spread via WiFi and affect other iPhones connected to an open WiFi network.
