Scam Got a Scam/Spam or Phish in my junk or normal mail box (Mega Thread)

[Bill K]

Wow, these scammers are getting really lazy! As soon as you see that bogus "App Store" email address as well as the list of addresses it was sent to I don't see how anyone would even consider clicking on the attachment!

as well as the list of addresses it was sent to

Maybe "Brittany" won't notice that oversight

Maybe the macromalware is just a dropper and once executed, it can download the malicious executable that would have a higher ratio on VT.

Haven't got any nice attachment in my main inbox lately, however I do receive quite a nice amount of questionable links which may lead to those. By the time I try them links are already dead.

That would be a logical explanation.

Most of the time, malicious Office VBA Macro's will simply act as an entry to gain code execution on the machine before deploying file-less script attacks or dropping another loader on the environment. Following this, the real payload normally comes into play.

I can try and investigate the attachment for you if you'd like and provide some malware analysis insight. I'm a bit bored these days, it'll spice things up.

Send me the attachment download in a PM - if you don't have it, I'll use the VT link and see if I can find the sample myself.

You changed your nickname again? This one is easier to pronounce. The sample is still in my inbox.

There was at least 100 other people that it was sent to lol

 

[Dan50]

BitDefender extension blocked it.

 

[tsunami]

it was a sample from last year, the site looks dead.

[tsunami]

oh my bad it isn't...

Google Safe block. I assume Forticlient or Netcraft would have otherwise...

Hello,
Over the past few months I have received more and more spam and in recent weeks I received more spam than emails !
It had become unbearable and I was considering changing my email addresses !
But in the last 4 days I only received 2 spams !
Obviously I am very happy but I would like to understand what happened while hoping that the rain of spam does not start again

 

[TairikuOkami]

You probably have not responded to any spam and you have not tried to unsubscribe proving, that it is your actual email. Or the spammer server might have been taken down.

 

[Dave Russo]

I also was bombarded with spam (I have Yahoo Mail) And was suspicious they were pushing their 60 dollar a year upgrade, which I want no part of right now, kept sending to spam and also blocked sender and maybe it finally worked?? Anyway, Did you do anything differant?

 

[JB007]

Right, I did nothing; only deleted these spam.

 

[ng4ever]

I know if I have to ask it probably is.
