TurboSn0w2 and the new Thunderst0rm jailbreaks for iPhone OS 3.1.3 are FAKE; DO NOT INSTALL.
BigBoss recently posted the following warning:
Thunderst0rm is "supposed" to be an untethered jailbreak for 3.1.3. It was released today and is available for download. Thunderst0rm is fake. Do not download or run it. We aren’t sure what all it does, but it does not jailbreak your device. Furthermore, it may install some spyware or something. It should be avoided. Rumors say it deletes several files from iTunes meaning you would possibly have to reinstall iTunes after running it.
Another one called TurboSn0w2 is also fake.
We will be sure to post as soon as a real jailbreak is released. You can also check your jailbreak status using the iClarified Jailbreak Wizard
Limera1n
just been tipped off on twitter about Limera1n.com a domain which has been registered by the infamous iPhone hacker named George Hotz (aka geohot). The domain whois record for both blackra1n and limera1n shares same record and confirms that it has been registered by geohot on March 27. Whois record also reveals that it was last updated on April 13, almost effectively the same date when geohot successfully jailbroke iPhone OS 4 which makes it even more authentic. Though there is no confirmation about this by geohot himself.
