The latest development in my spam situation is attached GIFs. I'm filtering them all into a separate place and I delete them at once, but it's a pain because it makes the deletion a several-step process instead of one click. Can someone tell me what the purpose of these is? Are there viruses attached? Is it a way of luring you to open the message and verify a live address? Suddenly this is my main form of spam, and they all take exactly the same form.

As usual, just curious. I'd like to understand what the point is.
