The recently launched Bulgarian website that started a campaign to "fire" the country's Prime Minister Boyko Borisov has been a subject of hacker attacks, its anonymous creators have claimed.
"After the social provocation we made as citizens, our billboards were removed and they tried to hack our site. This is typical for the Prime Minister's hooligan nature," the campaign's organizers have said in a statement.
The anonymous campaign launchers have further stated they are "having fun" watching Boyko Borisov and Interior Minister Tsvetanov following them.
The website was launched on Tuesday, a day after billboards saying "I will fire Boyko Borisov!" popped up at the exits of the Bulgarian capital Sofia. The author of the statement remains unknown.
"The stopwatch is already working. You will receive more information on July 17, 2011 at 1 pm," the site said.
The "I will fire Boyko Borisov" sign appeared a week after a Facebook group declared July 5 a "Day without Borisov." The first suspects about the authorship of the billboards became the young activists of the opposition Bulgarian Socialist Party, BSP, since they participated in large numbers in the Facebook campaign, but the BSP youth organization issued a declaration that they had nothing to do with the billboards.
The leader of the conservative Order, Law and Justice Party, RZS, Yane Yanev, known for the large number of billboards promoting him before the 2009 general elections, also denied involvement.
