1437735 2017-07-27 06:11:00 If you hover over the link in the email you'll see where it will actually take you, does that look the same as the URL you see in the email itself? CYaBro (73)
1437736 2017-07-27 06:41:00 Nod32 Anti-virus apparently failed to detect it!?

I have deleted the email, CYaBro.

1437739 2017-07-27 08:06:00 I always know what bills I have and whether or not they are due. Never been overdue, but should such a thing occur, I'd know that too.

And if I was to pay a bill, I don't do so by clicking on links, I go into online banking and do a Bill Payment, or if a one off, then the one off payment.

Beats me how these scammers succeed with those.

1437740 2017-07-27 09:23:00 They aren't trying to get you to pay the bill.

This is their aim

"The online bill link and PDF attachment in these phishing emails will take you to a website where you’ll be asked to download a zip file. The zip file contains a javascript malware dropper that we assume will download ransomware to your device."

from the link in my previous post.
