Well, since the spam is trying to lure you into money-laundering, I don't think the senders really care about whether they got your email address in a legal way or not. It's most likely added to make people think that the email is genuine, somehow. Not necessarily aiming at people who know what open source means, it just sounds nice. Like they could have written "your e-mail was given to us by a friend" as well.
