You scrape address pairs off web pages, and then spam each with the 
other address used as 'from'. For example, an address pair scraped from 
an FRC archive might result in spam 'to: frc_at_...  from: jessw_at_...'. 
Works very well to spam TMDA and ASK users and subscriber-only mailing 
lists.

Not much used, yet, but I've seen it several times in the last year. 
Seems to be a coming thing.

FYI, I'll be away for a eight days starting Sunday.
