The e mail translated appears to be for a speeding ticket but I was unable to open the attachments and on checking the senders e mail address above it is in Columbia. Therefore Id be wary of opening the attachment unless someone here can tell me different caution would be best

You should have deleted it as when you clicked on the attachment you have allowed access to your pc so I would suggest a full scan with Malwartebytes asap

Yes Freddo I agree fortunately my laptop couldn't recognise the file type and couldn't open it but did a full scan anyway

Everything like this is definitely a phishing mail. (how shall they know your Email address?) Just delete it.
