Subject: Annual Form - Authorization to Use Privately Owned Vehicle on State Business

All employees need to have on file this form STD 261 (attached).  The original is
retained by supervisor and copy goes to Accounting. Accounting need this form to approve
mileage reimbursement.

The form can be used for multiple years, however it needs to re-signed annually by
employee and supervisor.

Please confirm all employees that may travel using their private car on state business
(including training) has a current STD 261 on file.  Not having a current copy of this
form on file in Accounting may delay a travel reimbursement claim. 
The is a ZIP file attached which includes the victim's domain name as part of the filename. Inside is an exectuable file with an icon to make it look like a PDF file, and the date is encoded into the filename.

VirusTotal detections are not bad at 25/48. Automated analysis [1] [2] [3] shows an attempted connection to warehousesale.com.my hosted on 42.1.61.90 (Exa Bytes Network, Malaysia). There are no other sites on that server that I can see and I recommend that you block both the IP and domain as a precaution.
