Default spam email

I get two or three emails every day that look like they were from my former neighbor. But the spelling is always slightly different. If you were not paying attention you would hit on it. Now I am getting emails from a friend who I know is in Europe for the summer and the same thing the spelling is slightly different. How can these people set up so many different email addresses?
What are they after?

Makes you wonder how some people can set up so many different email addresses. They are either after you personal information (financial, health, etc.) or your money.

Delete any emails from Hormel Foods Corporation

It's probably spam
