Haifa port workers received threatening SMS from Iran

On the evening of Monday, October 21, many Haifa port workers received SMS messages on their mobile phones that their place of work would soon be the target of a missile attack.

“We have hacked the systems of the Haifa port and we know that you are its employees. We are giving you a little time to leave the port, which will be one of the targets of our missile attack,” the message says.

The port’s press service reported that the SMS distribution did not affect the operation of the port, and that the phone numbers of the workers were apparently taken from an old database that had been leaked a long time ago.
