You can block by IP but this is not a solution as most users comes from ISP that uses a shared IP, which means the same IP can be used by many people to access your site and if you block you could block many and becomes a problem, multi user registration is normal even on big sites we all do this and it is good for your site as long as there is a users Feedback which shows the user activity for others.

Thanks
