Idk, but intuitively I would think that the profits they get are spread over a great number of accounts.
If 98% of your spam earned income comes from a single account, that would make you very vulnerable to losing all of your income if that single account is banned.
If on the other hand, 80% of your income comes from 10,000 accounts then it doesn’t matter if 1 or 10 or 100 or 1,000 of those accounts get banned. You’ll still have the income from the remaining 9,999 or 9,990 or 9,900 or 9,000 accounts. And you’ll make a bunch of new accounts all the time so that for all of those account of yours that are banned it’s not really significantly reducing the total number of accounts under your control either.
Of course, I could be wrong and it could be that they have a handful of accounts that make all of the income and all of the other accounts only serve to fake engagement for those few accounts so that those few accounts get boosted and seen by people. I’m not in the spam making “business” so I don’t know how it actually works.
