Dridex Omicron phishing taunts with funeral helpline number

A malware distributor for the Dridex banking malware has been toying with victims and researchers over the last few weeks. The latest example is a phishing campaign that taunts victims with a COVID-19 funeral assistance helpline number. The email includes a password-protected Excel attachment and the password needed to open the document. Once the password is entered, the recipient is prompted to ‘Enable Content’ to view it. Once this document is opened, the malware will be downloaded and installed on the victim’s device.”]
