Very likely the spammers are exploiting a web server with an older copy
of Matt's FormMail script. FormMail.pl versions prior to 1.9 are very

Looking at the html source, the second email actually came from a
legitimate auto parts business. It appears that someone either has
hacked their servers, or is using a form submission on their site to
redirect.
