I usually report SPAM to the ISP from which it originated. Especially local SPAM. Usually, I don't receive any replies.

This morning I sent an email to MWEB Business and to Hetzner. They both replied with proper responses, thanking me for informing them. Lets hope they take action against these criminals!
 
Spam is like crime. You will never stop it. People sometimes do it not realising that it is a problem. (Ask Government officials) Education is required, like the aids campaign, one needs to educate the internet user what constitutes spam. Perhaps an attitude as well
 
To my disappointment, MWEB just asked the user to remove me from their mailing list. They don't get it... I could have done that. The reason I involved them is because this users' services should have been cancelled, or at least given a warning.
