All,

Some users have reported receiving emails that appear to be a reply to a 
clamav-users mailing list thread but are in fact a phishing attempt have 
attached malware.

Most recently, Marc reported receiving an email that appeared to be a reply to 
an older clamav-users mailing list thread but was in fact a direct email 
targeting him.  It had this fairly generic phishing text:

"Would you please look through the last agreement? I have attached some extra 
details about it."

The attached file was some small HTML file containing malicious obfuscated 
javascript.

This isn't the first time we've heard of this type of phishing using our 
mailing list archives. Please be careful when you see any sort of attachment, 
even if it appears to be from this community.

If you receive this sort of phishing email, please report the attached HTML 
file to https://www.clamav.net/reports/malware

Regards,
Micah
