"This email was NOT sent or authorized by NPRC, and is NOT associated with NPRC. It likely contains malware or viruses that could harm your computer if you click on any links contained in the email or open any attachments," the advisory states.
The attack was spotted by Websense, a web, data, and messaging security firm.
"Social engineering attacks will always be successful. They're banking on how users handle a particular scenario," said Stephan Chenette, Websense Security Labs manager. "In this particular case it was quite successful."
