Last time I looked into the issue (few years ago), they were sending captchas to real humans in labour-cheap places and having them solve them and submit them. I came up with alternate means of slowing down spammers for the Simutrans forum I administer - I found Captcha became useless (But also with the forum software, it only supported its own custom thing, not like ReCaptcha)
