If only Spam was "supernatural" it would make my life a lot easier, 
I could just disbelieve or ignore it.

These people are evil.  Truly evil and they are spammers and nothing more.

Of course, to put a UA slant on it, the amount of art spam has increased
hugely.  So, is this an ascension attempt by a new Godwalker of the 
Artist trying to make the medium more popular by leveraging the immense
power of the internet and get art into people's homes.

However as it's spam and I know these sites are being blacklisted all
over the place the attempt is obviously going horribly wrong.
