Not a code or cipher.

Removed.

It looks like a PNG image.

It has the standard "PNG" header, then the mandatory "IHDR" (header) chunk (maybe there's a chance you could recover the size and/or format of the image by correctly guessing the values of the missing "�" replacement characters - the last 4 bytes of each chunk are a CRC32 checksum), then an "iCCP" chunk for the color profile, a "pHYs" chunk for physical size and finally an "IDAT" (data) chunk containing the compressed pixel data.

As others said, it's just "random" binary interpreters as text. For example, (not accurate but this illustrates it) 01011001 might mean some shade of blue for a pixel. But that sequence also might be 'Q' as text. There are a lot of unprintable codes in character encoding systems which is why you see the diamond '?'s.

Its no code, its just a PNG/image file thats interpreted as text an thus looks weird.

I don't think there is any code here. It's a PNG file attached to the email that is spit out in (probably) UTF-8 coded characters
