Mal/Bredo-Q is a damaging Trojan that is included in the spam emails supposedly sent by USPS or Royal Mail. The bogus emails use a variety of subject lines and include adaptions based on whether the scammers think they are targeting a British or American computer user (Brits are attracted to open the attachment with an email seemingly from the Royal Mail, while American-based recipients may believe the message comes from USPS). The wording can differ, but here are some examples of both the USPS and Royal Mail versions of the malicious email. The fake email involves a malicious ZIP file which, in truth, is Mal/Bredo-Q. Mal/Bredo-Q corrupts PCs that are running Windows. When the malicious email attachment within the ZIP file is run, Mal/Bredo-Q copies to Windows system folder and modifies the registry so that it can run automatically every time you turn on your computer. Mal/Bredo-Q also connects to remote servers and installs several malicious programs on the corrupted PC system. If you receive such emails, do not click on the attachment and delete the unwanted email as soon as you can to protect your computer from Mal/Bredo-Q.
