A PRANK message has appeared on the Classification Board's official website in a hacking attack.

The message, posted overnight, replaced the welcome text on the Government body's homepage.

"This site contains information about the boards that have the right to CONRTROL (sic) YOUR FREEDOMZ," it said.

"The Classification Board has the right to not just classify content (the name is an ELABORATE TRICK), but also the right to DECIDE WHAT IS AND ISNT APPROPRIATE and BAN CONTENT FROM THE PUBLIC."

It continues: “We are part of an ELABORATE DECEPTION from CHINA to CONTROL AND SHEEPIFY the NATION, to PROTECT THE CHILDREN. All opposers must HATE CHILDREN.”

The message was noticed about 8pm (AEDT) yesterday and stayed online for a few hours.

The Classification website has been inaccessible for several hours.

A spokesperson for the Classification Board confirmed the attack, and said it was being investigated. The Australian Federal Police are not currently involved.
