Phishing Word Documents with Suspicious URL

I first checked the file using oledump.py to see if there were any OLE files in this document.
Next step was to check what is inside this OPC file using zipdump.py.
There is one jpeg file in there and the remainder are all XML all dated September 1, 2022. Since everything appear to be a word/document.xml, lets look for URL that might be hidden in this word document by digging inside with zipdump.py using the following options described by Didier here:
