The PDF file was flagged by a machine learning classifier as malicious. It contains a large number of external links, many of which point to PDF files with numeric or generic slugs, indicative of a link farm or SEO spam campaign. One of the embedded URLs, http://hazmatpackingandsupplies.com/uploads/1/3/0/8/130814020/130814020.html#this+feeling+alabama+shakes+lyrics+meaning, is directly present in the document body, suggesting a lure to a potentially malicious site.
