Can’t read the binary file (excel)

I tried to download the attachment from email, and then convert it to json to extract something from the the file. The actual file is about 8kb, but i’m keep on having the same error message. What should i do next?

What is the error message (if any)?

The argument ‘size’ is invalid. Received 8589934592
