Troubles Bpay scam

I’ve received an email claiming to be from Bpay. Is it legitimate?

It reads as follows;

By inquiry about 11/8/2007 you or your family member had been made request of check verifivation.
According agreement and application form we send you a copy of the check for verification of the holder address.
We recommend to unpack the check, make on it corrections, put the signature and send it back!

This is a scam and you should not open the attachment on the email. The attachment is a Zip file that, when opened, tries to run a DOS command. While we don’t know what it is trying to do, it safe to assume this is what we call a Trojan horse.

Under no circumstances should you open this email’s attachments.
