Malware spam: "British Gas - A/c No. 602131633 - New Account" / trinity [trinity@topsource.co.uk]

This fake financial email is not from TopSource, Trinity Restaurants or British Gas (the email seems a bit confused), but is instead a simple forgery with a malicious attachment.

Hi ,

Please refer to the attached invoice from British Gas, the account number on it is different from all the account numbers that we currently have in the system. Can you confirm if this is a new account so that we will create this in system.

Thanks & Regards,
Pallavi Parvatkar
