The problem here is that the community gets screwed not the guy paying $8.95. If he was getting what he paid for- well who cares. The problem is everyone else.Well, you're not likely to get it for the $8.95 that Godaddy charges. Their abuse department does a remarkably good job, considering their volume and margins. Perhaps the message here is that you get what you pay for. For a rock bottom price, You get rock bottom service. There are registrars that charge considerably more and provide considerably more service.
That said- even if domains were more expensive it wouldn't change anything for the phishers using their stolen credit cards.
There simply needs to be a better way for the community to quickly identify phishing sites- verified by some independent body (such as CERT) that can quickly verify the domain is a phishing site and alert the registrars to shut them down. Don't let it be used for copyright or any other non-sense complaint.
