Already forward email to scan@virustotal.com (with subject “SCAN”) but still not receive scan result mail at 2016/6/7 09:00 am (Taiwan time).

May I ask, how long I can get the scan result ? :slight_smile:

Thanks for reporting it!
I will block both URLs, create JS detecion, and perhaps we will write a short blogpost about it :wink:

I got an email yesterday saying my PayPal account had been locked. In the Outlook header, it was obvious it didn’t come from PayPal and the link I was supposed to click to fix things was to a Russian site and was something like myjino.ru\payus. It sure looked like a ransomware attempt.

Good job, thanks Honza. :slight_smile:
