The website of water concessionaire Manila Water was hacked early Sunday, with visitors to the site seeing a small window indicating the breach.
"Hacked by Blackrain!" read the message on the smaller window, which pops up when one logs on to the Manila Water site (www.manilawater.com).
As of the morning of Sunday, April 17, a popup window indicating a "hack" greets visitors to Manila Water's website. GMA News
Users could not access any part of the website until they click on the "Ok" button on the popup window.
Aside from the popup, the other parts of the site appeared normal. The website was fully restored sometime thereafter, with no official statement from Manila Water as to the possible origin of the attack.
