They are seeking to put undeclared advertising in editorial and are prepared to pay for it. Nothing different to what the commercial TV channels do every day, as much as Media Watch rails against it... Although I doubt even Channel 7 does it for spammers - I suspect that from a spammer you would never see a cent. Also, if you put a link in your article, they can change it any time, and unless you are checking constantly, you won't know that you have started advertising porn, or homeopathy, or neo-nazism...
