So far your suggestion makes the most sense. The spammers are in the game for the money. If all the really stupid people quit buying their products, then the money dries up and the spammer gets poor and goes away! Unfortunately, my experience in the world has shown me that the world is full of stupid people who think they are getting a bargain on something when they save a penny, even though the spam sponsor cherges them $25.00 to ship the product to them!
