I get about 10 per day. They all seem to come from hacked O365/Gmail accounts. All 4 of my Gmail accounts are affected.

It's all the same crap that's obviously spam.

"Dear Friend, I hope this email finds you well. I need your assistance in a matter..."

"You've been chosen!"

"Home Depot/TruGreen/Dicks Sporting Goods/ADT-Security"

"Invoice enclosed"

"You've received a direct deposit..."

"Hot sex <insert emojis>"

I would guess that Gmail is simply a legacy/commodity function at Google, so they have spam handled by lower-end employees or even contractors.
