If the user had Bitdefender installed, he wouldn’t be able to unzip the file because the security solution would identify the threat and move it to quarantine.

Whilst this may indeed be an attack that's currently seeing a resurgence, the fact that it's a marketing article doesn't give me a lot of confidence in that.

Edit: I just noticed that your account is only 8 days old as well. I feel like that's a further indicator that this is just spam.

It an article from bitdefender. How did you not expect they would promote their service?

Doesn't matter, the threat is still real.

It can be both an ad and useful info.
