EPTTwo iPhone App developers have spotted what appears to be a hacking of the App store rankings by a rogue developer. The rankings in the books category of the US iTunes store features 40 out of 50 apps by the same app developer, Thuat Nguyen.
What’s more concerning is that it seems individuals iTunes accounts have been hacked to make mass purchases of that one developer’s apps. (Update: this does not appear to just be one specific developer nor one particular set of apps any more. Details at the foot of this post.)

Glad I don't use iTunes for my music currently.
