Phishing For Your Money: New Trojan File Steals Financial Info

Posted by TimSlavin at January 16, 2004

"Mmdload arrives as a zipped attachment in an E-mail that carries the same subject line and text as the MiMail worm. The message offers recipients the chance of winning cash, which will be deposited directly in their bank accounts, if they fill out the attached form.

Clicking on the attachment launches a program named Paypal.exe that contacts a Russian Web site, www.aquarium-fish.ru, to download the Mimail worm. The Web site is the same one used by MiMail to send completed forms disguised as coming from PayPal, an online payment service." Personally, I don't know who would fill out such a form. From InformationWeek.
