Online Shopping Delivery Turn into a Malware Carrier

 Analysis by: Bernadette Caraig

This spammed message purports to come from Gizmondo and informs users that their supposed online purchase will be delivered in their address. It bore the subject,Thank you for settling the order No.47190 and has an attachment supposedly containing the tracking number. In actual, the .ZIP file attachment (Db027715e.zip) contains a malicious file.

Users are recommended to be wary in opening email messages that lure users into downloading a malware onto their systems. It is also best to verify first the legitimacy of the email by contacting the organization.
