14 DAY TRIAL // On Tuesday, Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Cyber Fighters announced the initiation of week 4 of Operation Ababil 3.
“We have already stated that removal of the offensive video, INNOCENCE OF MUSLIMS, from YouTube is the simplest solution to stop the cyber-attacks,” they wrote in their latest statement.
According to the hackers, last week they attacked BB&T, US Bank, Fifth Third Bank, Wells Fargo, PNC, JP Morgan Chase, Suntrust and others.
For this week, their first targets appear to be Wells Fargo and Bank of America. A report from SiteDown.co shows that hundreds of Wells Fargo customers have complained about not being able to access online services.
Wells Fargo representatives have told Reuters that “a vast majority of customers are not impacted and customer information remains safe.”
The Hilf-ol-Fozoul blog reported that the website of Citizens Bank was also disrupted on Tuesday.
