Signed New Order_pdf.html attachment email scam.
New Order_pdf.html is the trigger.

Clicking on attachment leads you to a Trojan, password-stealing virus or fake website.
My first red flag is .html attachment as well as the use of Re: as a reply in an email chain, No Client ID, very poor grammar and the use of the sense of urgency to force you into an emotional based response.
This scam email is masked as a message regarding a Signed New Order is supposedly in the email attachment, New Order_pdf.html. However, the malicious file appears as attachments or downloadable links which infect the recipients’ devices with malware.
Moreover, these files can be archives (ZIP, RAR, etc.), executables files (.exe, .run, etc.), Microsoft Office and PDF documents, JavaScript or HTML files.
When the infected file is executed, run or opened, the infection chain malware download/installation is triggered. Most prevalent is Microsoft Office documents infecting devices by executing malicious macro commands.

pdf.html attachment email scam.
New Order_pdf.html is the trigger.
Stop, pause evaluate.
RE: is the abbreviation of the word, regarding, used in the subject line of a reply to an email. RE: indicates that the current email was sent as a reply to a previous email. Note Re: subject line tricking you into thinking it is an email in current process of communications, in this case a Signed New Order.
Scammers know there are much email opening rates with the subject line Re: moreover, it stands out in your inbox.
Phishing attacks create a false sense of urgency to force you into an emotional based response taking advantage of psychological triggers to get people to click without thinking thereby capitalising on known natural human responses. Avoid the urge to click, scammers use curiosity, urgency to force an emotional response.
Whenever you see the words immediately or urgent, stop, pause evaluate.
