ClamAV detection as Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0 further supports the malicious nature. The ML classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness. The document body contains garbled text, indicating it is not intended for human consumption but rather as a container for the malicious links.
