mojibake
A Japanese word for a particular kind of gibberish that happens when text is rendered with a different encoding from the one used to create it. In English this usually scrambles the punctuation and accented letters, leaving the unaccented letters and digits correct. Other languages are usually more thoroughly scrambled.
