Maybe, but profit or turnover?

If you're a spammer, your major expenses are probably bandwidth and legal.
If you're paying anywhere near that much per week for either of those, you
have some *major* problems...

If he was using a botnet and wasn't collecting the vast majority of that
$10-15K as profit, he needs to be forcibly removed from the gene pool.
