Subject:     Happy New Year! - Followup to our last offer

Dear Madam, Dear Sir

Everyone in our team would like you wish you a happy and successful new year 2014! To help make this year even better for you, we have decided to give 20'000 free business contacts to the first 200 people visiting our website this morning! You don't have to buy anything. You can just visit our website and download the free business contacts!

Over the last year, we have helped hundreds of businesses like yours find new customers and achieve growth by using our highly targeted business database on CD. Our database, available for download from our website, is the only one on the market which includes targeted info on over 5 million Businesses in the UK.

Last December, we decided to take our Business Database CD off the market after a last sale because the cost to update the database regularly had become too high and we want to concentrate on the development of new products.

A lot of businesses since then, requested us to renew our last sale after its discontinuation. Not only have we decided to renew our last offer for a period of 8 hours (until 4PM this afternoon) before finally taking the database off the market, but we have decided to give to the first 200 people visiting our website this morning 20'000 free business contacts.

Here is a quick reminder of what is offered in our Business Database CD:

- 5 million Businesses in the UK selectable by Industry/Location/Company Size/Premises type/Job title
- Over 300,000 Businesses with email addresses
- 4 million named Decision Makers available by job function
- Unlimited export to .CSV or Excel
- Updated in October

We have decided to give you a last opportunity to get your hands on the database, as we are convinced it can dramatically help your business. We are offering to the first 100 customers placing their order today before 4PM, an unrestricted version of the database with unlimited export capabilities (as opposed to the standard version which has a limit of 50'000 exports) - and this, for a substantially reduced price of £199 instead of £498!  This will end at 4PM today, so don't miss it because some your competitors won't!


20'000 Free Business Contacts

We are so confident that the extensive data can help your business that we are giving away a free sample with 20'000 Business contacts to the first 200 people visiting our website this morning. This allows you to evaluate the quality of the data before completing your purchase. Visit our website to download the free sample and jumpstart your business!

To download the free sample, to get more infos or place your order, click here to visit our website

To your success in 2014 and beyond,

Audrey Martin

You should never buy anything promoted through spam, and it is especially important not to buy email lists in this way. You (as the sender) will end up with the legal liability for anything that you do, but Marketing1 masks whoever is the true owner.. so good luck with ever finding that out (I suspect they are not based in the UK at all). Avoid.

UPDATE 2014-05-09: these grubby spammers are at it again, using the domain m1-datacrmeu.net to mask their true domain. I took a look at these "20'000" free records, and the ones I checked were laughably out-of-date. No wonder the database is so cheap!

Wire transfer malicious spam / monikabestolucci.ru:8801 and 78.159.118.226

Please Review your transaction as soon as possible.

The link goes to a legitimate hacked site containing some heavily obfuscated javascript, in turn this points to monikabestolucci.ru:8801 and then downloads further code from 78.159.118.226/forum/hp.php?i=8 (Netdirect, Germany) - the Wepawet report is here, there also an Anubis report on the binary here.

monikabestolucci.ru is massively multihomed (a raw list is at the end of the post) presumably on legitimate hacked servers.

The malware tries to download further code from sulusity.com on 209.59.220.65 (Endurance International Group, US).. another one to block. A Wepawet analysis is here.

Update #1:  another version is doing the rounds with the initial malware hosted on chillebucks.com (69.163.37.22, Bula Networks California).

Update #2: The Wepawet analysis indicates that this might do something with the user's Facebook account as well as the usual malware payload.

Another load of LinkedIn Spam is doing the rounds, this time the payload is at cyancellular.com/showthread.php?t=73a07bcb51f4be71 hosted on 209.59.217.78 (Endurance International, US) and also browncellular.com/showthread.php?t=d7ad916d1c0396ff hosted on 174.140.168.207 (Directspace, US)

Lazy BBB / "ACH transfer pending" spam, chillestruct.com and closteation.com

Here's a lazy spam about an "ACH transfer" that appears to come from the BBB, because the spammers have mixed up the campaigns.

Date:      Wed, 24 Jan 2012 13:31:58 +0100
From:      "manager@bbb.org" [manager@bbb.org]
Subject:      ACH transfer pending

Dear Sir or Madam,

This message includes a notification about the ACH debit transfer sent on your behalf, that was held by our bank:

Transaction ID: 471209863177939
Transaction status: pending

In order to resolve this matter, please review the transaction details using the link below as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,
Kathy Quirk
Accounting Department

The link in the spam routes through a couple of hacked sites to a malicious payload at chillestruct.com on 173.248.190.37 (Zerigo Inc, California) and closteation.com on 209.59.221.158 (Endurance International, Massachusetts). Wepawet reports are here and here.

Blocking the IPs will prevent any other malicious sites on those servers from causing problems.

"Invoice 17731 from Victoria Commercial Ltd" spam leads to DOC exploit

This fake invoice email leads to a malicious Word document:

From: Dave Porter [mailto:dave.porter@blueyonder.co.uk]
Sent: 06 November 2013 12:06
To: [redacted]
Subject: Invoice 17731 from Victoria Commercial Ltd

Dear Customer :

Your invoice is attached to the link below:
[donotclick]http://www.vantageone.co.uk/invoice17731.doc
Please remit payment at your earliest convenience.

Thank you for your business - we appreciate it very much.

Sincerely,

Victoria Commercial Ltd

The email originates from bosmailout13.eigbox.net [66.96.186.13] which belongs the Endurance International Group in the US. The malicious .DOC file is hosted at [donotclick]www.vantageone.co.uk/invoice17731.doc which appears to be a hacked legitimate web site.

Detection rates have continued to improve throughout the day and currently stand at 10/47. The vulnerability in use is CVE-2012-0158 / MS12-027. If your Word installation is up-to-date and fully patched then it should block this attack.

A sandbox analysis confirms that it is malicious, in particular it connects to 158.255.2.60 (Mir Telematiki Ltd, Russia) and the following domains:
feed404.dnsquerys.com
feeds.nsupdatedns.com

It is the same attack as described by Blaze's Security Blog and I would advise you to look at that posting for more details. In the meantime, here is a recommended blocklist:
118.67.250.91
158.255.2.60
feed404.dnsquerys.com
feeds.nsupdatedns.com
customer.invoice-appmy.com

AICPA Spam / favoriteburger.net

The IP is worth blocking, and you may want to consider blocking larger ranges of this ISP who seem to have a problem with this type of malicious site.
