And following this option may need another one "Accept messages from friends only ".

Left unanswered.

On the other hand - sometimes customers (new ones) "knock" in the personal messages.

We just need an automatic ban for sending 10 identical messages to different users.

Or the Complaint button in the private and ban at 5 complaints.

That'll take the edge off.

1. At first glance, great idea. But with a little thought, you can immediately see the downside: when sending messages, you have to search for and compare the earlier messages sent by the sender user. And what criteria to take to identify "... the same message..."? Maybe the message will be slightly modified. What then?

If you need to find a reason not to, this one will do.

And if you need to solve a problem, this could be one of the algorithms used.

It's not all that simple in the definition of "same messages". I, for example, respond to an invitation to be friends with a standard phrase:

"RUS. Hello.
You have sent a request to be added as a friend. Request granted. Can you tell us about yourself?

EN. Hello. You have sent a request to add a friend. Request satisfied. Tell me about yourself? "

Would this be considered an identical message?

 
It's simple. You need a "spam" button. A few calls like this from victims and the spammer is dead.

EN. Hello. You have sent a request to add a friend. Request satisfied. Tell me about yourself? "

Would it count as an identical message?

If there are 10 new friends at once, yes, it will.

And don't let such exceptions prevent you from blocking real spammers.

Yes, my 2nd suggestion.

I think it will be implemented, it's just there's no technical possibility (the button itself in private).
