MITRE ATT&CK
T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The document exhibits characteristics of an advance-fee scam, referencing lottery winnings or parcel delivery requirements to deceive the user. The presence of a CreateProcess API reference suggests the document may attempt to execute malicious code. While no scripts were extracted, the heuristic firings and document content strongly indicate a social engineering attack aimed at financial fraud.

Heuristics 4

  • Reference to CreateProcess API high SC_STR_CREATEPROCESS
    Reference to CreateProcess API
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 604,576 bytes but its declared streams total only 21,151 bytes — 583,425 bytes (97%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
  • Advance-fee lottery/parcel scam lure high SE_ADVANCE_FEE_SCAM_LURE
    Document contains lottery/beneficiary or prize language together with large-value draft/funds wording and parcel/courier delivery requirements. This is a classic advance-fee fraud document shape.
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
