Say ‘no’ to attachments in email containing passwordprotected Word documents

I wanted to alert everyone of a new malware distributing SPAM campaign that I just received containing a password protected Word document, which pretends to be about a payment I would receive shortly. The SPAM emails are being sent with a subject like "Important Information from Troy Watt", with the names most likely being different between recipients. The Password is 0qArccIMK. You need to paste it to be able to open the document.

According to a security researcher, this campaign is installing the Ursniff key logger and data stealing Trojan

The takeaway from this article is to be careful and not open any password protected document unless you are expecting them and know who they are coming from.
