ATLANTA, Sept. 5 (UPI) -- The home Web page of UPS was defaced Sunday by a Turkish group of hackers declaring "World Hackers Day," officials at the company's Georgia headquarters said.
A group calling itself TurkGuvenligi replaced the UPS Web page with its name over the image of a red dragon that re-directed site visitors to its Twitter feed, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
Customer data and company information were not compromised by the attack, UPS spokeswoman Laurie Mallis said.
The attack was related to the company UPS uses to register its domain name, she said.
"It's my understanding there is a fix in place," she said
TurkGuvenligi was involved in similar attacks Sunday on the Web pages of Vodofone, National Geographic, computer company Acer and British technology site The Register, said Zone-H.org, a site that tracks hacked Web pages.
