A Finnish anti-piracy group has received a bomb threat message recently.

The whole world started giving hacktivist group, Anonymous, accusation looks.

The hackers, however, fired back saying that they had nothing to do with the terrorising message through their Twitter account.

The anti-piracy group has fallen under the web-villains' radar shortly after its victorious activism which resulted in a block of The Pirate Bay in Finland.

As a quick reminder, a court in Holland too has ordered two ISPs to start banning the notorious alleged copyright infringement facilitating website.

The reports stated that The Copyright, Information and Anti-Piracy Centre (CIAPC) in Finland has received a serious bomb threat and was forced to take the matter to the authorities.

Meanwhile, Anonymous did not sit pretty and instead it urged its followers to take online action, saying:

"Anonymous encouraged followers to target the Copyright Information and Anti-Piracy Centre after it persuaded the Helsinki District Court to force ISP Elisa to block access to the file-sharing site."

There have been no clues as yet as to who was the author of the serious threat to the anti-piracy organisation.

The CIAPC has not commented on the story.
