I had read some of the site awhile back and the impression I got was that while spam is welcome, to build a database, it is only the truly misleading stuff that they can deal with legally. I'm sure they get their fair share of enlarge this or that emails which are probably borderline, it seems more likely they'd do something about the traditional scammers trying to get bank accounts or credit card numbers. That was my take on it anyway. The database could at least in theory be used to build some decent cases of abuse of service down the road. It didn't sound like the current tactic however.
