NWN Media Ltd Confirmation of Booking della.richards

NWN Media Ltd Confirmation of Booking della.richards 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

Thanks for posting this. When I got the email I did a quick google and the fact it was a real company really threw me off. Glad to know I should delete!

Thanks for the quick work - not picked up by our spam filters, unusually, so I checked and found this page.

Yup, got one just a few minutes ago too so the perps are obviously doing a big mailshot today. SCUM...

Caught me off guard in the morning and I opened it (there were a few options from my email on how to open, view online, download etc and i clicked view online), it came up with a blank page, Help please?!?

Currently running virus scans...

Steve Basford said...

If you have macros enabled, on a windows machine and opened the attachment than it's working running one of the AntiVirus scanners from the online scanner tab at the top of the blog.

If these find nothing, it's worth doing the same scan a few hours later again, as they will have updated their signatures.

Unthinkingly opened attachment on Android smartphone. Have free antivirus app which doesn't seem to have picked it up. Have Facebook and email open on phone, but I don't use phone for online banking. Risks? Suggestions?

Steve Basford said...

Hi.. no risks on Android or Iphone only Windows.

I received this email this morning and opened it, I am using a macbook and now im having problems getting into my emails, any advice please, have i been hacked?

Anonymous said...

Any idea of anyone that has a fix for infected machines yet please Steve ?

Unknown said...

Thanks for posting this. I stupidly opened the attachment. How do I know whether my computer got infected. In case it is infected, what should I do to disinfect?

Anonymous said...

Try using a online virus scanner like http://www.bitdefender.co.uk/scanner/online/free.html

It will not infect a macbook so the person with email issues it has nothing to do with this.
