In most cases I just stopped sending them traffic cuz I figured they were either sending the spam themselves or they had some kind of security breach/leak. Interesting fact: almost all of the programs were/are using NATS and spam addressed to those unique addresses has been hitting my filters for a lot longer than 2, 3 or 5 months.
