It poses as a certificate file for printing. The mail contains an MS Excel file. Upon opening the attachment, it executes a macro that downloads other files. This malicious macro is blocked and detected by live casino online products as W2KM_GEN.F299E00LK16. The spammed message is also blocked and detected by live casino online products.
Never open attachments from email that are not expected or that are from unknown sources. Having proper anti-spam and anti-malware products installed also provides a good layer of protection.
