Questions about Credit Card offers in the mail

I'm wondering: how does one get Credit Card offers in the mail? My mom from time to time got credit cards in the mail, the kind that said "Call Now To Activate!" I'm wondering, how did she end up receiving these offers?

Also, how do they approve her for these credit cards since they're not allowed to run credit checks without her consent?
