it's a bad idea to respond, even if they look valid.
Bounce their domain, that would be easiest.

Synthetic, why should I unsubscribe when I didn't subscribe in the first place? Did you miss that these are non exsistant addresses they are sending this to?
I am about to do something about it, and unsubbing won't be one of the actions I take.DANG DANG! DANG!!™

when something like this happens its normally more fun to setup unneeded addresses like marketing@ to forward all mails straight back at them
They soon see there inbox filling up and stop the mailingMatt Wallis

I know Matt, but that would take too much work as I would have to log into 80 domains, then create, then set the forward and for marketing, and for sales, ect. Too much work for a couple of spams per month.
Some domains have unaddressed email set to :fail: because of their popularity, and the tendancy of idiots to make up addys using them when they are forced to give an email addy to download something. (don't ask how I know this) But for other domains, I need to be able to recieve unspeicifically addressed email. These are important ones where if a person mistypes the addy, we will still get the mail. (happens a lot)
I'm thinking though . . . and I'm going to do something to these idiots, even if it means getting ther ISP to cancel their account. I want to try to be creative first. As you noted it is much more fun.DANG DANG! DANG!!™

I've been shoving those ones through spamcop, but it seems their upstream isn't listening too hard to complaints. I believe it's chinanet from memory.

You could :blackhole your (catch all/default) e-mail address.
