Refund on order 204-2374256-3787503 Amazon with an attached 204-2374256-3787503-credit-note.doc word document containing a macro.
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

I just had the same email this morning (23rd April) so thank you for posting this up.
Had three emails this morning within the space of an hour. That's when I became really suspicious!
I also received it but thought it was a scam. Nice to have it confirmed.
Just received this email. Thanks for the confirmation.
