Aaron Nimocks apparently doesn't feel loved and is wanted some more friends in his MySpace account (undoubtedly so he can send them spam mail later). So he's buying friends in an attempt to have a million friends listed in his account. Right now he's at 70 or so, and since he has to manually approve friend requests, he's probably going to get deluged by e-mail.

Just look at the marketplace section of a large webmaster board - people will pay hundreds for Myspace accounts with lots of friends. The frenzy started with the video code sites that were raking in tens of thousands per month by supplying video codes to Myspace users. Then YPN came along and a few lucky teenagers were making 10's or even 100's of thousands per month with their Myspace accessory sites. YPN caught on to that and shut those site owners out, but there are still plenty of ways to cash in on the big traffic Myspace can generate.
