Malware Campaign Targeting BlackBerry

Websense ThreatSeeker Network intercepted a malware campaign targeting BlackBerry customers. These fake emails state that the recipient has successfully created a BlackBerry ID. The email encourages users to follow instructions in the attached file on how to “enjoy the full benefits” of their ID. Those who open the attached.zip file will drop a handful of. executable files that will modify the system registry to start malware programs upon the machine’s next startup. The malware comes attached to an email that is an exact copy of the email you receive when creating a new BlackBerry ID.
