Lately I have been getting strange emails accumulating in my yahoo bulk folder. It starts off as an advertisement and then at the end there is a jumbled sentence that does not make any sense whatsoever. What is this?

It is junk email. They put BS sentences and phrases in the message I guess because they think then the filter from your program will think it is legitimate email. They put this at the bottom of a pic which is actually an ad that has the words they know the filter would catch. The deal is though, many users will report the email as spam if it is not in their spam folder and then the filters are updated to recognize it as spam anyhow.
