TrickBot is, at the moment, the malware showing up in the highest number of unique COVID-19 related malicious emails and attachments delivered to potential victims' inboxes based on Microsoft's Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) data.

"Based on Office 365 ATP data, Trickbot is the most prolific malware operation using COVID-19 themed lures," according to a tweet from Microsoft's global network of security experts.

"This week’s campaign uses several hundreds of unique macro-laced document attachments in emails that pose as message from a non-profit offering free COVID-19 test." The macros used by the TrickBot gang are still using a delay before downloading the malicious payloads to evade sandbox analysis and emulation.
