Apple staff offered thousands in bribes for login details

Apple employees are being offered thousands of pounds by hackers in exchange for their login details, Business Insider reports.

According to an Apple employee from Ireland, who spoke to Business Insider on the condition that they remained anonymous, there are reams of hackers who want to attain information that can get them inside the tech giant's security.

The source said: “You'd be surprised how many people get on to us, just random Apple employees. You get emails offering you thousands [of euros] to get a password to get access to Apple.

"I could sell my Apple ID login information online for €20,000 (£15,540) tomorrow. That’s how much people are trying."
