Re: [Spam] Western Union Transfer MTCN: 1848485571 [ZIP FILE VIR

said by MGD:

I was surprised that it received such a low Bayes score on the filter, plus sailed through the mail server's AV. On the default file settings of most win machines the exe extension will be hidden. Only that icon and the file name will be seen. The curiosity of the recipient will need to exceed the only warning about running an exe when clicked to open, for the ruse to work. It is possible that AV's may catch it as sometimes Virus Total's results are on the low side, though the catch rate on the original was 16 versus 18 on my submit a day later.

Let me know if you want a copy of the zip

I had some of those Hallmark ecards start getting thru different filters thru different accounts last week and contacted the AV companies [all] as well as the folks at dslr where it got thru their filters as well.

Not too many reports of that email getting to the masses after the time I spent alerting multiple contacts about it being 'allowed' as hallmark.com as sender even with headers and sender from Romanian IPs.

REPORT, REPORT, REPORT.
