Linsen Parts UK Ltd Invoice from Linsen Parts Ltd

Invoice from Linsen Parts Ltd Invoice mark03215@linsenparts.co.uk being spammed with a word document.

These emails aren't from these companies at all , they are just being used to make the email look more genuine, ie. from a real company.
Note
It's also worth remembering that the company itself  may not have any knowledge of this email and it's link(s) or attachment as it won't have come from their servers and IT systems but from an external bot net.

It's not advised to ring them as there won't really be anything they can do to help you.

NOTE

The current round of Word/Excel/XML attachments are targeted at Windows users.

Apple and Android software can open these attachments and may even manage to run the macro embedded inside the attachment.

The auto-download file is normally a windows executable and so will not currently run on  any operating system, apart from Windows.

However, if you are an Apple/Android user and forward the message to a Windows user, you will them put them at risk of opening the attachment and auto-downloading the malware.

Currently these attachments try to auto-download Dridex, which is designed to

steal login information regarding your bank accounts (either by key logging, taking auto-screens hots or copying information from your clipboard (copy/paste))

Cheers,
Steve

Don't worry about the phone, this is a macro that runs in MS Word - but you should be more careful about what you open!

Hi, I quickly opened this, enabled macros and then a .exe files tried to open. I quickly clicked the 'x' symbol, and that APPEARED to be the end of it. Should I be worried?

Hi Ben, it's worth doing some online antivirus scans. Choose Eset from the online scanners tab at the top of the page.

Hi,

I'm glad that I've just come across this, haha..

I've opened the email and the attachment but it appears blank on an iPhone. Can I just check that this isn't going to damage my phone?

Cheers,
Rich

Hi Richard,

You'll be ok if you've opened it on your phone

Unknown said...

I stupidly openned the Word doc in MS Outlook. Immediately closed the "exe" boxes but obviously started something. I have since run Eset, Windows Defender and Malwarebytes to erdicate the virus.

Is this enough, any advice?

Thanks

A very silly boy!

Any good way for detection of this? I notice that the Sane rules haven't been updated to detect these?
