Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2013 10:33:53 -0600 [12:33:53 EDT]Unzipping the attachment gives a malware filed called INVOICE_28781731.exe with an icon to look like a PDF file. VirusTotal detections are 16/46 and are mostly pretty generic. Comodo CAMAS reports a callback to topcancernews.com hosted on 199.19.212.149 (Vexxhost, Canada) which is also being used in this malware attack. Looking for that IP in your logs might show if any of your clients.
