De hackers groep Poodle Corp heeft zich in no time weten op te werken tot een berucht collectief dat te pas en te onpas hele netwerken offline haalt met DDoS aanvallen. Zo claimen ze dat ze gisteren verantwoordelijk waren voor het neer halen van de Grand Theft Auto V servers en vielen ze ook nog het PSN aan. Want: Gewoon omdat het kan. Bovendien beloven ze nog binnenkort een hele grote aanval op de agenda te hebben. Dus wordt vervolgd.

Although there is complete silence on PlayStation support handle on Twitter some gamers sent HackRead a bunch of questions asking whether PlayStation servers were under attack or not. We followed PoodleCorp's Tweets and found the group claiming it attacked PSN servers on a small scale and a large scale attack will be conducted soon.

When it comes to Grand Theft Auto servers there has been no official confirmation as to whether they have faced any cyber attack or whether their servers are down, however, GTA Online Server Status page shows the access is limited on Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation3, PlayStation4, Windows PC and Social Club.

Upon following "Tweets & replies" section of Rock Star Support Twitter handle, one can see tons of questions and complaints about servers being offline.

It was just yesterday when PoodleCorp had shut down Blizzard and League of Legends servers forcing gamers to take their anger out over Twitter, however, the group is also known for their previous hacks where they took over some top YouTube channels including WatchMogo, Redmercy, LeafyisHere, and LillySingh. The same group was also responsible for shutting down Pokemon Go servers.
