Hi. First post. Apologies if wrong thread. This morning hundreds of emails were sent from my account with the following text - "Good Morning, Please see the attached document. Password - 537DK" and a file attached called request.xip. I immediately logged all devices out of google. When I investigated it appears these were sent via outlook (I have 2FA on google). I regret having given MS access to google. I installed Norton and McAfee and neither of them detected any virus or malware. Any pointers? I assume this is a well known issue. Is there any reputable company that can help me find and remove any rogue files on my computer? Many thanks, Gavin |

Gavin, This is the TA551 (Shathak) campaign pushing IcedID (Bokbot) malware. I'm doing a diary on it as we speak that will be published at 00:01 UTC on Wednesday 2020-10-13. The IOCs for the infection I generated may be different than the ones you'd see, unless they came from Tuesday 2020-10-13. The domains and IP addresses change for each day of malspam sent out from this campaign. Regards, Brad |

Hi Brad, Much thanks for the reply. I read your update and it’s extremely thorough. I’m grateful for all the time and effort you put in here. Two questions - how do I know if my laptop was infected? I don’t see any new files in e.g C:\ProgramData. Or any png files in AppData. (I just assume I was infected somehow since emails were sent from my gmail via outlook to not only my contacts but other people cc’d on emails I have in gmail.) - how do I clean my laptop? Will Norton / McAfee add this to their list of known malware? Best, Gavin |
