Start cutting off the money flow from the top. Going after the individual spammers as a group isn't going to take the money out of it. Heavy fines, penalties, etc. levied on the actual companies towards the top of the food chain can have a dramatic affect.

Let's face it. Spammers are in it for the money. Follow the money to the root of the problem.
