The Gauteng government has launched an investigation into allegations of a suspected breach of government information.
A message posted on an online forum claimed to have successfully extracted the Gauteng government database.
"Thanks for reading and enjoy! Official online portal for the government of Gauteng, a province in South Africa," reads the message.
"The website provides residents, businesses and visitors with access to important government information, services and updates. It includes details about different government departments, public programmes, health care, education, housing and economic development initiatives."
