Tiong Bahru Plaza mall directory screen shows WannaCry ransomware message

A ransomware message appeared on the digital directory at Tiong Bahru Plaza on Saturday 13 May 2017, photographed by a shopper and posted to Reddit and Facebook. The directory operator, MediaOnline, disconnected the boards while it installed a patch, and said the directory ran on its own network, not the malls' or tenants' networks. Reports also said screens at White Sands and a Desigual store at Orchard Central were hit.
