BlackBerry Spam with Backdoor
February 12, 2013
This spammed message targets BlackBerry users. It is a notification asking the reader to download and open the attached .ZIP file for a full experience of their device. However, the said attachment contains a backdoor, detected by Trend Micro as BKDR_ANDROM.JWS. When users open the attachment, routines of the said backdoor are executed on the reader's system.
Users are strongly advised to be wary of bogus notifications even if these came from supposedly known sources. It is also best to contact the organization and verify if the email message is legitimate or not.
