is this possible or is a hack?

So is it possible to hack the game without first hacking the server? I'm no hacker, so this could be a stupid question. But like there are jailbroken iPhones out there that can get an app that allows them to buy IAPs for free. Is that possible with this game? I hope not for you all.

No. It was funny, on launch day I kept seeing these weird errors on the accounting server, invalid receipts. I thought the server was bugged and that we were screwed. Then I noticed the funny receipts were all kind of the same. So I did some Googling and realized it was people trying to use an IAP cracker on us. It's mostly stopped now but there's one every once in a while still. Very amusing.

Haha, GOOD! Very glad you are immune to this. Though I'd be wary of them developing a workaround. I hate that people can do this in other games, and for obvious reasons we all know why it would be bad for this game.
