Hong Kong lawmaker’s website attacked by hackers claiming affiliation with ISIS

The official website of lawmaker Tam Yiu-chung was attacked yesterday by hackers claiming to be affiliated with terrorist group ISIS.

Stand News reports that the pro-Beijing LegCo member’s webpage was defaced with a picture of men wielding weapons, with the caption “We are ISIS”.

The message “YOUR SITE IS D3F4CED BY ISIS Holy warriors” popped up upon opening the page, as the sound of gunshots played.

Then, around 7pm yesterday, a new pop-up message greeted visitors: “Fuck China”.

Maybe Josh Wong has infiltrated ISIS.

The site is still offline at the time of writing.
