Oops... Try this again...

And as soon as you call law enforcement what happends?  The spammer is
located offshore.  Then what?
99% of them are americans - and mostly from Florida at that. See http://www.spamhaus.org/rokso/

they might subcontract stuff offshore (to India and China, where a lot of legitimate software development / BPO etc work is also going), sure.
