Beware! Malicious Europcar invoice emails spread Trojan horse attack

JB

SophosLabs has intercepted many emails today, attempting to infect Windows computers via an email purporting to be an invoice from a car rental company.

The emails, which pretend to come from Europcar, have a ZIP file attached which contains a malicious payload.

Sophos products are detecting the attached file, "EuropCar Invoice.zip", as Troj/Invo-Zip.

Of course, the emails don't really come from Europcar - the cybercriminals behind the attack have simply forged the sender's email address.
