BitDefender Labs has detected a new round of spam campaigns that purport to be electronic airline ticket invoices, but in fact contain malicious Trojans that send sensitive information back to the remote attacker.
Similar in nature to the attacks launched earlier in the year, this attack capitalises on the start of spring, the school holidays and the desire to plan a late-year vacation. Most likely executed by the same criminals, this attack campaign is a mass mailing with borrowed flyers, as well as additional elements to entice the recipient into opening the .ZIP file.
The attack comes in an email purporting to deliver e-tickets and invoices for a so-called Buy Airplane Tickets Online service.
