About two weeks ago we told you about several websites that seemed to spring up overnight offering genuine iPhone unlocking. By "genuine" we mean the unlocks didn't require any hacks or jailbreaks as the websites appeared to directly access Apple's database and add IMEI device identifiers to it, which then told iTunes to unlock the iPhone the next time it is plugged in.
We also warned readers that they should be extremely careful if they take advantage of these services as there was no telling if Apple would relock the phone if they noticed unauthorized IMEIs being unlocked. Well, as of today all those websites offering iPhone unlocks have mysteriously shut down.
Yes, mysteriously. Even the web
