(Newsmax) Microsoft’s Security Intelligence team is warning of a malicious email campaign, in which people are receiving messages claiming to originate from the Johns Hopkins Center with attachments that are alleged to contain statistics on COVID-19 cases, but instead, when opened, install and run attacks on computer systems.

The topic of COVID-19 is used to lure users into opening both the email and the attachment.
