More strange Yahoo email

I've been getting some strange attachments sent to my Yahoo account
lately - none of which I open.

Here's the latest ploy from some idiots.

It seems I goofed and copy/pasted twice in the email. :blush:(

Please don't post OPs real emails here. The spambots will pick
them up and mega spam tem.
Just the original sender and a brief description would have
done. And as David pointed out, uploading the attachment to
http://www.uploadmalware.com/
or http://virusscan.jotti.org/en

will help defeat the bad guys.

Jotti allows you to see if the file has already been
submitted, but needs javascript.
Uploadmalware does not.
Virustotal does not work for me anymore, it uses apis from
google-analytics, which are blocked on my system.
FWIW
