Malware spam: "Rebecca McDonnell [rebecca@gascylindersuk.co.uk]" / "Telephone order form"

This fake financial email is not from Gas Cylinders UK but is instead a simple forgery with a malicious attachment.

There is a malicious Word document attached with the name TELEPHONE PURCHASE ORDER FORM.doc which probably comes in a few different variants, but the one I saw had a VirusTotal detection rate of 4/56 and contained this malicious macro [pastebin] which downloaded a component from the following location:

http://morristonrfcmalechoir.org/143/368.exe

This is saved as %TEMP%\serebok2.exe and has detection rate of 8/56. Analysis tools are a bit patchy today, but the VirusTotal report indicates traffic to:

212.227.89.182 (1&1, Germany)

The Malwr report reported a dropped Dridex DLL with a detection rate of 3/55.
