Porn shown at Brazil bus station after hackers take over

Tourists got something of a shock when hackers took over the display screen at a Brazil bus station - and broadcast a porn film for 15 minutes.

According to the Daily Mail, the sex scenes were shown on the screens that normally display arrival and departure time information for passengers at the Boqueirao station in Curitiba.

Staff reportedly rushed to try and sort out the problem as the footage played in front of a packed station, including children.

The police cyber crime unit has been notified and is trying to trace the hackers, reports news.com.au.

The site adds that a Curitiba Hall official said the company with the contract to operate the screens has been notified and told to step up its security.

Curitiba is the capital and largest city of the Brazilian state of Paraná.

Back in 2013, a South American bus driver was left extremely red-faced after he accidentally left a porn flick running on the vehicle's video player.

A passenger managed to catch the mortifying moment on camera, and the funny footage went viral after being uploaded on LiveLeak.com.

The faux-pas occurred on a journey from Santiago to Talagante in Chile.
