I suppose it might be fun to contact the outfit being spamvertised and
just ask them why they think hiring spammers to advertise for them is
such a good idea.
I've had good results in the past posting spammers 800 # and email with the

and emails to convince them.
I expect that calling out every spammer reduces repeat offenders and discourages
new ones. If they think nobody objects.......
