Granted I think 20 is ridiculous, but spamming is typically fraud. These spammers use trojaned machines to send their e-mails. That's what proxie mailing is. Using open proxies (ie PC's infected with trojans) to send their e-mail so they can't be blocked or hopefully caught.
They typically don't report their earnings or they launder the money through other means. That's how the govt always nails these guys.
