A GROUP of pro-Islamic State (IS) hackers have gone on a website defacement spree, breaking into the websites of more than 20 Australian small businesses.
The hacking group, which calls itself the United Cyber Caliphate, has hacked the sites leaving a message and a picture.
Most of the websites that were attacked were tyre and wheel retailers.
