Banning IPs doesn't work because an ISP or a company may map multiple users and systems to the same external IP. If you ban the IP you may block several legitimate users.

How about we capture the MAC address which is specific to a DEVICE, add it to a ban list and turn their device OFF whenever they come to this sites pages.

They ought to grow tired of waiting through reboots quite quickly I would say.

We could even be meaner about it and capture their info and supply it to other spammers/scammers email lists. That ought to change their focus for quite a while.
