The IP address you've gotten, that is the IP address of the server, is as far as you're going to get. You are not directly connected to the other user when using Skype, you each connect to a "supernode" (server) that passes the communication between the users. Short of hacking into that supernode there is no way to find out the IP of other users. There are thousands of these servers and you can be connected to a ton of them at once, with different parts of a single chat session passing through different servers.
I can safely say that it's a lot more than one person, more than one organization doing this. Basically everyone who has a fully open chat connection/facebook/twitter/etc account constantly deals with spam invitations like this. Either set Skype to "Friends only" or block these guys individually and move on. |
