These Word documents are named "User-Progress-072021-1.doc" and contain content with the title "Made on Windows 11 Alpha". The next content of the document is a guide to opening a safe document, but it is actually the steps to activate malicious code.
Most users who are familiar with Windows 11 builds know that there is no version named Alpha. However, those who have never heard of Windows 11 can be tricked into running a malicious Word file.
Cybercriminals attack by tricking users into activating macros built into Word files. Once activated, the macro can perform various activities such as information gathering, data mining and even ransomware download.
