Regional eBay and PayPal sites targets for SEA. The Syrian Electronic Army’s latest targets are the websites of PayPal and eBay. The sites from the UK, France and India have displayed a Syrian flag and the message “Hacked by the Syrian Electronic Army. Long live Syria. [Expletive] the United States government.”
“For under 60 minutes, a very small subset of people visiting a few marketing web pages of PayPal France, UK and India websites were being redirected,” Nayar said. The Syrian Electronic Army has confirmed on Twitter that it wasn’t their intention to do any damage. They included screenshots of defaced homepages intended to back up their claims, as well as images of domain management portals and internal emails.
