Inside this email is a malicious word document that contains a highly obfuscated macro that once executed launches PowerShell. It then downloads and executes the “cripted.exe” file which is the final stage Formbook malware. PowerShell is also utilized to execute the Microsoft .Net C compiler, to create future code for the malware. Formbook is a notorious information stealer that is available for purchase on underground markets.
