The download password and submission number are the same in all cases I have seen. Clicking the link leads to a landing page at barclaysdownloads.com.


Entering the password downloads a document AccountDocuments.doc with a VirusTotal detection rate of 14/58, and Hybrid Analysis indicates that this uses an Equation Editor flaw to run a Powershell that downloads an additional component from:

http://basedow-bilder.de/kporto.bin
http://crimefiles.net/logo.bin


The .bin file is saved as %TEMP%\lovemete.exe and this currently has a detection rate of 15/65. Hybrid Analysis indicates this is Trickbot.

barclaysdownloads.co.uk and barclaysdownloads.com have both been registered for this purpose, the latter of which is hosted at Cloudflare.
