Firstly, there are many types of unwanted e-mail, and using the term SPAM to
cover them all is a dis-service. 
A lot of reported SPAM simply comes from lists folks have signed up to, and
who can't be bothered to un-sign themselves off the list.

The e-mail in question was not one of those, it was almost certainly sent by
a criminal attempting to steal and re-sell some ones credentials.

I am fairly certain the e-mail originated from 102.47.65.89. Sticking that
into an Internet Search engine reports...

I doubt it, some one will invent a religion that says tortured spammers get
to heaven first......
