$1000 iPhone app bought by accident

Andrew Wooden
$1000 iPhone app bought by accident A US iPhone user has attacked Apple after he accidentally bought an application costing $999.99.

Laughably, the piece of software – called ‘I Am Rich’ – simply displays a red ruby on the screen.  

The iTunes user in question, Lee5279xx, posted a scathing review of the application, saying: “This is not a joke. I need someone from Apple to help me with this scam. I saw this app with a few friends and we jokingly clicked ‘buy’ thinking it was a joke, to see what would happen. I forgot my wife had ‘iclick’ activated on my laptop, and it really bought it for $999.”

I Am Rich has now reportedly been taken down from iTunes.
