One should always make a new email account when searching for a job to collect spam like this.

It may seem annoying, but what I did was create a template letter myself. You send this one out initially, and then if recruiters reply to it asking for your photo, you send it. Done deal. Move those to a folder you will spend more time on. Forget the rest, after 1 month you won't get them.

Regardless if you have a second email account or not, these emails will not be sent after time. They will assume you got a job and stop emailing you. It's not really spam because you posted your resume. This is quite controllable. Spam in social groups is much harder to get rid of. For that, you need to hide certain email accounts.
