A fraudulent (and worm-laden) email arrived in my mail box today containing a zip file claiming to be from Google Staffing, with the title reading "Thank you from Google!".
I downloaded the attachment (from a test system, of course) and the excellent Microsoft Security Essentials nabbed it right away!
Category: Worm
Description: This program is dangerous and self-propagates over a network connection.
Recommendation: Remove this software immediately.
