    Every single day I'm getting a new message from these people. Every single day.

    Me too, I just edited my options in control panel and change my PM to contact and admin only. Had enough of spam, but to be fair each one I have opened is banned, so someone is doing a lot of work to stay on top of it all, so well done staff ;)

    The staff has been getting their fair share of it, but please continue to report any of these bots as we may not be on their receiving list.

    Working on it. McLaren has the right idea. The more you report, the better the result.

    Do what I do on my place, don't allow members to send PM's until they have a small amount of posts (<=10). Spammers get deleted thus postcount is low, spammers with 0 postcount can PM all they like though by default.
