VIRUS: Complaint response from Companies House
« on: October 13, 2013, 03:23:16 AM »
This might catch some companies out... It's an email claiming to be a reply about a complaint to Companies House, with the sending address claiming to be Companies House <webfiling@companieshouse.gov.uk>. The email had a zip attachment which carried a malicious payload, identified by ESET NOD32 Antivirus as a variant of Win32/Kryptik.BMJD trojan, which is a new variant targeting the Windows Command Processor.
