Hacking teams are targeting phishing websites in a spate of online vigilante attacks, IT Week reports.

UK security firm Netcraft has spotted two recent phishing sites that were quickly taken down and replaced by pages warning customers of the attempted fraud.

A hacker known as 'sickophish' took down a site targeting PayPal customers, while a group known as 'The Lad Wrecking Crew' has defaced a number of phishing sites and even offers a website of images for others to use.

One defacement reads: "Were you looking for the bank that was supposed to be here? We trashed it because it wasn't real. You could have lost thousands of dollars of your hard-earned life-savings! There is no need to thank us, really."
