I assume that you're familiar with carbon copy addresses in emails. You can send an email to someone(s) and then if you want, you can also cc other folks. Well, you can also bcc folks which is a blind carbon copy. No one that the email was sent to will see that it was sent to the bcc addresses. I think lots of spammers use bcc. You may just see the first address that was in their list.

I think the reason that you get SPAM in waves is that the spammers slack for a bit and then send their mail.
