Hacker causes Bangladeshi waves
PETALING JAYA: Malaysians got an unpleasant surprise when many .my websites that they surfed to brought a message purportedly from a Bangladeshi hacker to their screens.
They had expected to get to google.com.my, dell.com.my, youtube.com.my or skype.com.my when they clicked away at the computers on Monday.
Instead they got the message which told Malaysians to respect Bangladeshi workers here.
At first, it was thought that the individual sites had been hacked. But it was actually the domain name servers operated by MyNIC Bhd that had been compromised to redirect the websurfers to the hacker’s message.
MyNIC had been the sole agency responsible for .my domain names in Malaysia.
Google Malaysia later advised Malaysians via Twitter to go to its international webpages instead, namely Google.com and YouTube.com.

MCMC chairman Datuk Mohamed Sharil Tarmizi said initial investigations revealed that the hacking had been confined to registered websites, which had the “com.my” prefix.
“MCMC was notified that the websites of several prominent companies in Malaysia had been compromised by the hackers,” he said in a statement.
“Quick action by the website operators prevented further damage by hackers but we are very concerned about the issue,” Mohamed Sharil said.
He said most of the affected websites were up and operating again and a special team has been formed to investigate the intrusion.
The team comprises personnel from MCMC and the police, Mohamed Sharil said, declining to elaborate further.
It is understood that one of the prominent websites, which had been hacked, was that of US computer manufacturer Dell.

REVENGE OF THE ‘BANGLA-SIAS’ : Malaysian websites hacked
PETALING JAYA – Malaysian websites were hacked today by Bangladeshi hacker TiGER-M@TE, resulting in users being redirected to a temporary site with a personal message from the hacker.
The hacker issued a warning against the mistreatment of Bangladeshi foreign workers in Malaysia.
A black background with the hacker’s message greeted users of the websites since yesterday morning.
It read: “Hello Malaysia, you think you are more advanced than us? Respect our workers, we will respect you!”
It was also reported that the websites for Google Malaysia, Yahoo Malaysia, YouTube Malaysia, and MSN Malaysia were attacked earlier in the day as well.
As of 5 pm, the Malaysian websites for Dell, Bing, Kaspersky, Skype, and Microsoft were still inaccessible by certain users.
It is unknown why these particular websites were targeted.
Earlier in the year, TiGER-M@TE had also reportedly hacked websites in Kenya and Malawi, although those did not feature a personal message from the hacker.
