Blackhole Exploit Kit Spam Run on Western Union

A spam campaign using Western Union leads to a blackhole exploit kit server. The email notification contains a link to lure users into clicking a link that supposedly redirects the user to a supposed transaction made with Western Union. Once a user clicks on the link, it redirects to a site hosting a malicious JavaScript, which leads to a blackhole exploit kit server. The server has an exploit code starts to execute to deliver its final payload, which is a .JAR file that is executed. This .JAR file downloads other malicious files into the user's computer.
