A new report claims that someone close to the hacking team known as the Evad3rs stole an iOS 7 jailbreak from them and sold it to a private buyer, according to a rumor released by International Design Times.

The rumor started after a website funding a reward to whomever makes a successful jailbreak for iOS 7 was created.

The website is called Is iOS 7 Jailbroken Yet?, and is currently offering a reward of over $10,000 for an open source and successfully working jailbreak.

"We strongly believe that users should have the freedom to control their devices," the reward website's mission statement reads. "We wanted an open source jailbreak for iOS 7, giving users the capability to install what they want on their own devices and the ability to audit the code they're using to do so. Jailbreaking is also critical to ensuring that the disabled are able to use their mobile devices as easily as possible. So we started a prize for the first people who can do it."

An Evad3rs team member who goes by the Twitter handle pod2g denied the claim that a jailbreak had been stolen from the team earlier this week.

The hacker also said on Twitter that an iOS 7 Jailbreak is in process, but it is moving along very slowly and could take until at least early 2014 for them to release anything.

Some media outlets think that it could take until May or even June for a successful jailbreak to be release.

It took the Evad3rs five months before they were able to release a jailbreak for iOS 6 in February 2013 after the OS was released in Sept. 2012. I think most Apple users would be pretty happy if the team was able to release a new download by Feb. 2014.
