The online hacktivist AnonGhost is on a hacking spree with targeting websites of top law enforcement agencies in the United States.
A couple of days ago the hacktivists hacked the official website of Larimer County Sheriff’s Office not once but twice in a week.
Today, the same group has hacked and defaced the official website of state of Louisiana’s Rapides Parish Police Jury (RPPJ), Southern Heritage Bank and Finland based Churchill bank.
AnonGhost left a deface page along with pro-Hamas and Qassam Brigade messages on all targeted domains – The second part of deface messages are anti-Israeli and anti-government, threatening to expect more cyber attacks.
We are watching you. Don’t close your eyes…This Message Is Addressed To All Governments! for many years,we have witnessed your unjust laws. we will fight back ! Expect us!

This is not the first time when AnonGhost has hacked a U.S. based government website. In past the Hillside Illinois Police Department and Military Boarding School Website were also hacked by same group.
The Rapides Police Jury is both a legislative and administrative body. Its legislative functions include enacting ordinance and resolutions, establishing programs and setting policy.
