tuq,

Usually just hit notify mod for stuff like this. If the guy was posting prolifically across many threads then temp ban him for 4 hours and let a forum mod do the permaban. Sometimes I'll send a PM with a link to a mod if I think immediate action needs to be taken.

I think in this case no one will disagree with your actions, but in the future you never know. One man's spam could be another's treasure.

Obviously, feel free to permaban spammers on site.
