When I go to their website I am getting this message:

 

"Our website is temporarily down, but our branches and Mobile Apps are available.

Yes.  The hackers have unleashed a Denial Of Service (DOS) on the main site.  CNBC has been reporting on it.

Who knows!! They target banks all the time.  I don't think with the Denial Of Service attacks that they can do anything to the accounts, but it doesn't let people access their accounts from the main site.

Ahh that explains it.  I've been searching on here for something about this. I knew I would eventually find a thread about it.  Thanks y'all.

Also, they're being attacked by the "al-Qassam cyber fighters". More info on them in the article. Essentially, they're attacking major US banks websites....edited.
