My public Linked In profile mentions in the first line that recruiters are NOT to contact me for any reason; if they do so, then I feel no remorse in responding rudely. 99% of IT-type recruiters are untalented jerks making a living from the skills of others and are too used to spamming or using dirty techniques to do their jobs.

That said, I can't see what you can do to 'protect' others, just delete their emails, set a spam filter appropriately and move on.
