MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The document exhibits characteristics of an advance-fee scam, including lottery winnings and parcel delivery requirements, as indicated by the 'SE_ADVANCE_FEE_SCAM_LURE' heuristic. It also contains an external relationship to a URL, likely used for tracking or as part of the lure. The document body text directly supports this by mentioning lottery prizes and the need to contact a lawyer for more information.

  • External relationship medium OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/document.xml.rels: http://www.topclassactions.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/mega brands logo.jpg
  • 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.
