The names and references change between different versions, but in all cases there is a malicious DOC file attached. This DOC has an unusual structure in that it is a some sort of MIME file containing a mixture of HTML and Base64-encoded segments.

My source has analysed that this downloads a VBS file from Pastebin at pastebin[.]com/download.php?i=FsYQqTaj which then downloads some sort of .NET binary from 91.226.93[.]14:8080/stat/get.php (Sobis, Russia)

This binary has a detection rate of 2/56 and according to automated analysis tools [1] [2] it communicates with:

46.36.217.227 (FastVPS, Estonia)

It also drops a DLL with an MD5 of f0d261147d2696253ab893af3d125f53 and a detection rate of 1/56.

Recommended blocklist:
46.36.217.227
91.226.93.14
