New World Hackers (NWH), one of the hacking crews participating in the Anonymous #OpAfrica campaign, leaked over the weekend details obtained after hacking and then defacing the website of the University of Limpopo from the town of Polokwane, South Africa.
The group seems to have carried out the attack last Friday, May 13, when the University’s website was defaced with a message that promoted the principles behind #OpAfrica, and another, not-so-friendly message for the University’s admin.
At the time of writing, the defacement message was removed, but the University’s website is inaccessible.
