Malware spam FAIL: "Statements" / Alison Smith [ASmith@jtcp.co.uk]

This fake financial email does not come from J Thomson Colour Printers but is instead a simple forgery with a malicious attachment.

Attached is a file S-STA-SBP CRE (0036).xls which is actually corrupt, due to a monumental failure by the bad guys. The payload is meant to be the Dridex banking trojan, but since Friday the attachments have been messed up and will either appear to be garbage or zero length. The payload itself should look similar to this one, also spoofing the same company.
