It's not in actual French, it's in something completely mangled. I assume either they use a generator that is even less well tuned than the random English rambling generators I have seen in action; or they go through an automated translation system. "Title = Diagnostic immobilier pour fait soutenir nous le sinclair" does not make one ounce of sense.

I just got one from InsoffAssurow. Some big long thing in French with hyperlink ads.
edit:
Google translate says this is what it says:
((unmitigated disaster of English gibberish, basically indecipherable, and quite humorous in places to some English Speakers))
This is why I can only attempt Proto Sentences in French. It is a matter of Colloquial French.
The computer was attempting to translate it as if it were 'English with French Words' or at best as some sort of 'High French.' But it doesn't work like that. It was written in Colloquial French, and that must be extrapolated into the appropriate Colloquial English (assuming it is even possible - many equivalents do not exist, or at least are not used.)
The computer must learn FRENCH With French Words, not English With French Words.
Ala: Quatre-vingt = 80. But, literally, quatre-vingt = four twenty.
Four twenty? Yes, four twenty. Four twenty = 80. Do not use Octante. (That's right, you don't get to use Octante. Do not Pass Go. Do not Collect $200. It's Quatre-Vingt, period.)
Why? Because. Because? BECAUSE.
Someone please tell the computer this, and we'll be set. :)
EDIT:
Try: Ah! L'on à du mal plairé, pour son argent!
Literal: Ah! He one has of ill/trouble/difficulty to please, for his silver!
(One legitimate translation) Well! One has a hard enough time pleasing him, for his money! (for his pay, the wages paid by him)
Try: Jour et nuit je me mets en quatre,
Semi-literal: Day and night I me/myself put in the work of four,
(One legitimate translation) Day and night I work my butt off,
Try: Chère fleur, qui viens d'éclore,
Literal: Dear flower, which came of/to/by/from/for (and several other possible words) to flower/blossom,
(One legitimate translation) Dear flower, which has just blossomed,
(Another legitimate translation) Dear flower, which has just come of blossom,
EDIT:
And remember, if I mess up the French, I have to answer to Winslow and the others (read: I had better get it right!)
Computer translations have a long ways to go. We have powerful computers, but not powerful enough, and not well programmed enough, to replace that colossal (and sometimes colossally stupid) invention known as the human mind.

Yup. There are english words mixed in it, there are non-words in it, there is no syntax, no structure. It's really a beautiful thing. Imagine a spambot that stayed to long in the Far Realms, and came back on the net with a lovecraftian alien mind. I wonder what was the original message (and what language it was in), but I guess that it was both strongly misogynistic and about some real estate product.
Four twenty? Yes, four twenty. Four twenty = 80. Do not use Octante. (That's right, you don't get to use Octante. Do not Pass Go. Do not Collect $200. It's Quatre-Vingt, period.)
Why? Because. Because? BECAUSE.
You can use "octante" or "huitante", but their use are limited to some backward swiss cantons. However, septante and nonante are widely used in Belgium, Quebec and Swiss, while soixante-dix and quatre-vingt-dix are a French thing.
As for the why, it's probably due to celtic influence, as the Gauls were using a base 20 numeric system rather than the classic base 10.

I'm not aware of any translation for "wham blam thank you". Some celibrity* known to be "wham blam thank you ma'am" have been nicknamed "Mr 5 minutes shower included", but that won't help you translate this sentence.
By the way, this spam is absolutely non-erotic. Immobilier is not immobiliser : it means Real Estate while the second means immobilize.

Already done a few times.
The problem is that these spambots are insistent. They come through a variety of proxies, so banning just one IP address is not enough.
I don't know which admin options are available in vBulletin; but in phpBB there is a "disallow username" feature that can be used to get rid of spambots that always use the same account name.
