Email campaign with malware: Javascript downloaders instead of executables as attachments

Several types of emails are being sent with a ZIP attachment containing a single file with this mask: <number>.doc.js.

 

Here is as text. Apparently, Google loves text because it can index it better, so I am doing here some SEO 🙂

 

Notice to Appear,

You have not paid for driving on a toll road. 
Please, do not forget to service your debt.

The copy of the invoice is attached to this email.

Yours faithfully,
Sean Worley,
E-ZPass Manager.

Notice to Appear,

This is to inform you to appear in the Court on the August 22 for your case hearing.
Please, prepare all the documents relating to the case and bring them to Court on the specified date.
Note: The case will be heard by the judge in your absence if you do not come.

You can find the Court Notice is in the attachment.

Regards,
Kenneth Mccormick,
District Clerk.

This is how the JS document looks like:

 

The content is being detected by many AV software as TrojanDownloader:JS/Nemucod.P or simply as Downloader. Surprisingly, only 28 out of 56 AV detect it. So, 50%… I am disappointed.

Well, since now I uploaded it for the first time, all of them will, fortunately, detect it soon.
