Just as an interesting note.. I seem to recall a spammer doing this in the
past using a "big name" domain and losing quite a lot of money in the
process from the resulting lawsuit.


The domain was flowers.com, the ISP was Zilker Internet Park in Texas, and
the judge found for the plaintiff.

Hope this helps.
