Description

Cisco Security Intelligence Operations has detected significant activity related to spam e-mail messages that claim to contain an account lockout notification from LogMeIn.com for the recipient. The text in the e-mail message attempts to convince the recipient to open the link to print and complete supporting documents. However, the link redirects to a .zip file that contains a malicious .pif file that, when executed, attempts to infect the system with malicious code.

E-mail messages that are related to this threat (RuleID5483) may contain the following files:

logmein_unlock_form.zip
logmein_unlock_form.pif

The logmein_unlock_form.pif file in the logmein_unlock_form.zip archive has a file size of 259,584 bytes. The MD5 checksum, which is a unique identifier of the executable, is the following string: 0x2220822C4FF50AE7102E105DBA3C793D

The following text is a sample of the e-mail message that is associated with this threat outbreak:
