The hacker Davy Jones continues to target high-profile websites from Sri Lanka. His latest victim is the official website of the Board of Investment of Sri Lanka (investsrilanka.com).

The site’s entire database, including the details of over 2,000 investors and other “important” documents, has been published on the Internet.

“Anyone want to invest in Sri Lanka please contact me because I will handle all investing data from now as I have intruded in their database,” the hacker said.

EHN reveals that this isn’t the only Sri Lankan site hacked by Davy Jones in the past 24 hours. He has also breached the website of the Lotus Pond Theater, which bears the name of the country’s president, Mahinda Rajapaksa.

At the time of writing, the theater’s website was taken offline.

You are doing a wonderful job. Please get into their defence websites and reveal all the secrects the Rajapakse's family, especially Mahinda and Gotabaya are hiding about Mullaivaikkal incidents. Also where is Mahinda and the rest of the family hiding their stolen money from the Tamils, Sinhala and from the money donated by western donar countries.
