[IAC#RG] URGENT: Important group notice

Dear IAC subscribers

Many of you would have noticed a sudden increase in "Hindutva" and VHP type of messages in our group recently and may have drawn some wrong conclusions.

We wish to now inform you that these were part of a large international Chinese hacking attempt to penetrate computers of IAC members, to plant trojans by spoofing emails as sent from our list,  and also to hack our email servers. There is a large coordinated attempt by professional Chinese military hackers know as PLA 61398 and other Chinese military cyber hacking units posing as militant Hindus and joining various Internet forums and posting comments on blogs, Facebook, Indiatimes, NDTV  etc.

In the past 2 weeks IAC has identified over 300 fake persons and identities masquerading as Hindu / nationalist patriots, and we are eliminating most (but not all) from this mailing list. We hope that after this IAC has eliminated most of the anti-national persons from the movement and we can now get on with our work of cleansing India which has been hindered by one corrupt force or another.

with best wishes to everyone

Sarbajit
National Convenor.
