KLANG: The early hours of polling day saw a number of Pakatan Harapan leaders claiming that they are facing cyber attacks via scam phone calls and emails.
It is learnt that social media accounts of leaders such as PKR deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali and DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng were apparently hacked.
Other leaders who were reportedly attacked included PKR's Elizabeth Wong, Dr Xavier Jayakumar, Sim Tze Tzin, Fahmi Fadzil among many others.
Xavier said his handphone number had received non-stop calls from fishy numbers since 8 am today.
It is learnt that websites linked to DAP's party organ Roketkini and PKR's Invoke are also down.
