Hello,
I received a forwarded email (already deleted) with the subject "UPS Paket (sic).
The text claims there is a "UPS Packet" that cannot be delivered because the address is wrong, and asks you to make corrections to the invoice. It leads you to a .zip file which contains an executable. The damage from this .exe is not known at this time, as the first recorded report of this malware was yesterday, July 14th.
I had a copy sent to me by my boss, who thought I might have a package due. My reply was "are you nuts???" and my next action was to post about it here. I'm running a full virus scan now but with the newness of the file I'm not expecting much. Keep your eyes open for this sucker!
