Indonesian hackers are targeting Australian police and other government agencies' websites as payback for spying on their president but no critical police information has been compromised.

The hacking group called BlackSinChan is reportedly acquiring and publishing encrypted passcodes of some Australian websites, leaving a message on one site "This is the payback for Spying Indonesia!"

Their actions follow revelations last week that Australian intelligence monitored the phones of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, his wife and other top Indonesian officials. However Australian Federal Police said on Monday no sensitive information was compromised when the hackers accessed log-in details of a member through the Crime Stoppers website.
