It's an unsolicited invoice from someone you've never heard of. Of course it's malware :-) It's an attachment to this post [1], compressed with gzip. The compressed version passes through VirusTotal cleanly. If you unpack the file, though, you discover that it isn't a PDF at all (surprise, surprise) but a .NET executable. And quite a few anti-virus tools flag it as something unpleasant [2]. Dave.
