July 24, Orange County Register – (California) FBI to investigate Placentia library hacking. The FBI is hunting down the hackers that hijacked the Placentia Public Library Web site the morning of July 24, a bureau official said the same afternoon. “The FBI will open and investigation into this incident,” said an FBI spokeswoman. The spokeswoman, who works out of the bureau’s Los Angeles field office, said that the FBI has a special unit that investigates “cyber crimes, computer intrusions, defacements, more traditional crimes like fraud and child exploitation.” Visitors to the Placentia Library Web site were greeted by an image of a flapping flag with a crescent moon and star behind a portrait of famed Turkish leader Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. Underneath was the phrase “Editaarruz is back.” A group calling itself the “Federal Attack Team” has apparently hacked www.placentialibrary.org — disabling the site completely. The word “taarruz” means “attack” or “offensive” in the Turkish language.
