Malware SPAM a new run has started.
Last week Brad mentioned malware being delivered via word documents in SPAM (https://isc.sans.edu/forums/diary/Malicious+spam+Subject+RE+Bill/20417/). Seems like this morning there was another run. Subjects vary and the messages vary slightly, the end result is however nasty. All have word attachments.
Subjects Seen: "Transaction", "LM Transaction" , "ENA Invoice"
Content:
Good morning
Please find the payment details enclosed with this message. The Payment should appear on your account within 1 day.
Regards
Steel Potts

Best regards

-------------------------------------------------
These are of course not a definitive list of subjects, but the pattern is fairly clear.
It may be an opportunity for some user education, especially those in your organisation whose job it is to click on attachments.
Cheers

OUCH!
The administrators of an organisation have the controls to restrict users from running the payload (be it the VBA macros or any dropper/downloader spawned with their help) of these MS-Word documents.

The language of your support department is unacceptable.
Please check the reply I received to my support ticket.
Attachment: support_ticket.doc
The attachment is the usual malicious Word document social engineering folks to enable content. Haven't had time to analyze yet but we've seen attempted POSTs to the following:
