Spammers send out these to fool spam blocker software.

Or it could be a poem.

See 'instalment' in there a few times? The spammers are trying to "seed" spam blockers to change the status of some red flagged terms/words.

I bet it is an insurance and mortgage spammer.

Just more stuff to confuse spam catchers I guess. I'm sure the spammers know more about how those things work than I do.

Like many said the purpose is seeding your antispam software to allow some of these words to be whitelisted and pass future spam.
