Someone is always trying something, I got an email today with a Word doc attachment for a bill I supposedly had to pay to someone I have never heard of. Obviously this is one way of getting collared with the ransomeware that is going around. If I had opened the doc, I may well have had my whole computer compromised and the only way to get it back working is either to re format, or have a backup offline or pay the mongrels to decrypt the whole shooting match.
So beware of any emails that get sent with attachments even if they are from someone you may know.
