Subject: Undefined transactions (need assistance) Ref:1647827ZM
Good morning
I have recently found several payments on statement with the incorrect reference. Amounts appear to be from your company, could you please confirm these payments are yours and were made from your company's bank account. If no then please reply me as soon as possible. Thanks.
P.S. Undefined transactions are included in the attached DOC.
Regards,

The reference number is randomly generated and changes in each case, attached is a malicious Word document also containing the same reference number (e.g. 1647827ZM.doc). Also the name in the "From" field is consistent with the name on the bottom of the email, although this too seems randomly generated. Some examples of names, job titles and companies in use include:
Joyce MillsI have seen two different variants of Word document in circulator, both undetected by AV vendors [1] [2] and each one contains a slightly different malicious macro [1] [2] [pastebin] which attempt to download from the following locations:

This file is downloaded as 20.exe and is then copied to %TEMP%\324234234.exe. It has a VirusTotal detection rate of 2/57. That report indicates that it attempts to phone home to:
194.146.136.1 (PE "Filipets Igor Victorovych", Ukraine)
This IP is commonly used in this type of attack, I would strongly recommend you block it.
The Malwr report shows that this drops a Dridex DLL with a VirusTotal detection rate of 2/57, which is the same DLL as seen earlier today.
