I thought all of the junk goes into gmail's spam folder by default.



No it does not. A lot of it lands in the inbox, though majority does goes to the spam folder.

Here I got this one, for example:

"Barr. D Salim <atmcad21@embarqmail.com>

May 3 (5 days ago)

to undisclosed recipients you are been compensate"

============================================

Another:

Dianne Yak <yak.dianne@yahoo.com> May 5 (3 days ago)

to undisclosed recipients Hello dear

I know this mail will come to you as a surprise but treat it with care, we can share photos, to know each other more. I hope to hear from your respond soon.
