Help Understanding Spammer's Aim

Below I will post the "View Source" of a spam message. Viewed normally, it shows no subject line and the body only contains a putative link. I've gotten 4, 2 with the same link and 2 others (and 2 with slightly more complex messages, but ones where the root link appears to be fully legitimate. In all cases, the apparent link in the message and the link in the "View Source" appear identical, the real link is not a redirect of what is seen in the message body. All have allegedly been sent from a friend's aol email account. Here are the messages:

-www.stimulusgrantoffer.com-

-www.ewebinarmeeting.com-

-www.seizedvehiclesonline.org-

-www.ewebinarmeeting.com-

I could barely afford groceries anymore everyone was worried that I would amount to nothing I thought this would intrigue you.

lately ive been distancing myself from everyone despite the circumstances I remained hopeful because of this im always one step ahead.

You owe me one!

What is this spammer attempting to accomplish? If I open the link is he informed that mine is an email address worth harvesting?
