Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar’s brother Roberto Escobar is in the news again. This time around, he hasreportedly filed a $2.6 billion lawsuit against Apple for an alleged security flawon his iPhone X.
After this development,Escobar had to relocate due to safety concernsand spent money to tighten up security. On top of this, he claims to have gone through emotional distress due to this issue. He appears to have bought the iPhone X just because an Apple employee assured him that the security won’t be compromised.
There also exists a website named ripapple.com which redirects to Escobar’s new gold-plated iPhone. The website will apparently showcase“proof showing how the people of the world were scammed by Apple Inc, buying crap for crazy prices.”
In case Escobar wins this lawsuit, the report mentions that he would “donate it all” to iPhone users.
