There's a scenario where a spammer/phisher sets up a mailing list, adds a bunch of addresses to the list and then sends a message with a paypal.com From: address through the list. The DKIM signature will obviously be invalid, but a MTA/spam filter won't be able to decide whether this is because the message didn't really come from Paypal, or because it did but the mailing list broke it.
