that is more than likely because on your business page or otherwise your email is in text format so it can be picked up - try image and the problem will not get worse.

Myself I have the office in california gather all my emails and filter them before they are sent to my mail address

I think by now every spam list in the world has my email address, at least my business one. My personal one doesn't have the problem to the same degree at all.

I use Mozilla Thunderbird for my business email address, and that cool little program sucks most of the junk right out of my inbox. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Download Mozilla Thunderbird

The sad truth is that spamming is still a marketing format that produces sales.

If people would stop clicking the emails and buying the crap there would be no profit and thus, no spam.

What annoys the shit out of me more than anything is sponsors that sell webmaster lists and getting spam promoting the same shit I am trying to promote.
