I have recently been getting a lot of emails with titles similar to:
A new setting file for the ***@*** mailbox has been released.
Or
Microsoft Outlook Notification for the ******.******@*****.be
If you received the above email or anything similar DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK IN IT!
Turns out that the email contains a link to a file which is a Trojan that disables firewalls, steals sensitive financial data (credit card numbers, online banking login details), makes screen snapshots, downloads additional components, and provides a hacker with the remote access to the compromised system.
I did some quick research on this on the web and found the following links:

Short Solution… Check with your IT Administrator before downloading any file that claims to change your email settings!
Hope this post helps your computer stay safe.
