Islami Bank’s Official Facebook Page Hacked

The official Facebook page of Islami Bank Bangladesh was hacked in the early hours of Friday, with attackers posting a threatening message and altering the profile and cover photos.

The group behind the attack, identifying itself as Team MS 47OX, claimed responsibility in a post at 5:42 am, warning that they were monitoring the bank’s activities and might soon launch cyber-attacks on its website and Facebook page.

A review of the page showed that while the name remained unchanged, the visuals had been replaced with images associated with the group. Some users also reported seeing suspicious posts around the time of the breach.

Nazrul Islam, head of public relations at Islami Bank, confirmed the incident, saying the page was hacked early in the morning and that the bank’s IT department is working to regain full control.
