The problem with scammers is that they adapt to countermeasures and you
end up in an arms race that takes up your time. Misconfigured hosts can
already be blocked using the field Richard and Nicholas linked to. You
can also set a minimum client version for the entire project or just
some applications.

Maybe you can describe what those "scammers" do and find a way to
discourage them. Which is hard I believe.
