Personally, I just don't care enough to put forth the effort to shut them
down. I just delete the messages and go on with my life (I recycle junk
mail too, just as quicly, effectively, and stressfree).
If you wish to attack them directly, go ahead. They'll just setup shop
elsewhere and continue (and if not them, a dozen others like them). My
apathy level for spam is at 101%, I just can't find it in myself to care
enough to do anything about it.
That's just a personal opinion
