ExqSoft Solutions has offered a web applications developer job to 17-years-old Brooklyn resident Michael alias MikkeyMooney who proved quite nagging for Twitter’s security engineers with his vulnerable web application for the site.

Should we fancy Michael? Well, many may find it quite alluring considering the fame, name and pelf, but it is, indeed, a dangerous trend and you need to think about the cybercrime task force against online villains.

This hiring of worm creator who did an unethical testing against a recognized website may send a wrong signal to many and it will also help to boost that emerging wrong trend. Many will already have planned to do such things in a hope that such offer could land a job offer on them especially in these recession stricken days when firing is at its apex.

The same concern was pointed out in July last year when nearly 2,525 profiles were infected by XX worm at Justin.tv.

It’s worth mentioning that exqSoft Solutions seems quite well-aware of guerrilla sort of PR campaigns and wants to make the most of  the recent Twitter happenings to have some appearance in mainstream media, as the company finds no where in the public since its launch in 2000. Hiring Mikeyy Mooney may give it an opportunity to have first mainstream media appearance.
