Hi, please only run this in a virtual machine if you do run it.
It appears to do nothing, but it is a part of the .SCR comeback (A bot on steam sent one to me today)

Can anyone pull it apart and find out what it does exactly?


Malwarebytes Detects it as a "Trojan.FakeMS"

Once executed, the following tasks are performed:
  • Retrieves the current session ID of the Steam user
  • Gains access to the user’s inventory / backpack
  • Saves items onto an “offer list” for selling
  • Displays the image below in order to make the user believe that what they actually opened is indeed an image file and not an actual application

did you have malewarebytes running at the time ?

Nope. Nothing happened, though I killed the process in tasklist, was disappointed.
Most malware are smarter/mask themselves.
I posted it to see if anyone was willing to see if it works properly/is a new version
