Nah, they just found a new trick and want to try it out.

My guess is they hired a wannabe geak to use FrontPage. (Probably there is 
a higher response rate from colorful spam than from plain text.)  I doubt 
the spammer would do the work itself.

Neither the spammer nor the web designer knows HTML -- they just know how 
to work a program that produces HTML.

Ergo, neither of them know which tags are essential and which aren't.
