This makes me want to invest in a CDMA/GSM dev kit so I can spoof IMEIs and ESNs. I'd send them:

AA-BBBBBB-CCCCCC-'); DROP TABLE imei;--

EDIT: another thought would be to use a directional antenna with a high-power transmitter (should only take a few watts with a +23DB panel or something) and have a script run through IMEIs and ESNs a few hundred a second, then just wave the thing around wildly.

If you want to stop this, you have to make it not economically viable for them. Real-life tracking calls for real-life DoS.
