So far the cyber criminals have only targetted WhatsApp users in India.
They send files disguised as coming from the Indian National Defence Academy (NDA) or the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
The two files are–'NDA-ranked-8th-toughest-College-in-the-world-to-get-into.xls' and 'NIA-selection-order-.xls'.
Once opened, the documents can gather sensitive information from users, including online banking details.
