Bangladeshi hackers group 'Black Hat Hackers' on Monday hacked the website of Congress MP and former Union Minister Shashi Tharoor.

The hackers warned the Indian cricket team against underestimating Bangladesh in the quarterfinals scheduled to take place at Melbourne on Thursday.

Calling the Bangladeshi team 'Tigers' the hackers threatened to 'manipulate cyber space' in India. Their reason for doing so was some obscure belief that the Indian media was deliberately downplaying Bangladesh, an act they called 'downsizing'.

The hackers warned India to 'watch your history', pointing to India's shock loss to Bangladesh at the 2007 World Cup which eventually led to the team's elimination from the tournament.

On the hacked page, there is also a link to the group's Facebook page. The Facebook page reveals that the miscreants have hacked a number of Indian websites in just the past 12 hours. They have proudly posted the links to each hacked web page.
 
A visit to most of these hacked web pages reveals a picture of the Bangladesh team with the information that the website has been hacked in revenge for the 'Mauka Mauka' ads on Indian TV. Some other websites show an 'Under Maintenance' message.
