Yesterday, researchers outlined a complicated way to crack the Google Wallet PIN used to make purchases with the smartphone-based payment system. Now there's a new hack that could let a stranger gain access to the funds of Wallet users.
Described yesterday by blogging site The Smartphone Champ, the hack doesn't require extra software, root access, or any particular skills in general.
Instead, all someone apparently has to do it clear the data for the Google Wallet app in the smartphone's application settings menu. The app is then reset and will prompt the person to enter a new pin number the next time it launches. Since the Google Wallet information is linked to the device and not to the actual account, a person can then use the Google prepaid card already tied to the device to gain full access to the owner's funds, explained The Smartphone Champ.
