I think that's an attempt to evade bayesian based spam filters by trying to out-weigh commonly high-ranked spam related keywords
e.g (marketing/refinancing/etc) with non spam related keywords, when checking the body of the text the filter would pick very few spam words in comparison to the junk words in the bottom, and perhaps give it a lower ranking as spam (doesn't work very well)
