How a web host enables scammers.....

I received an email supposedly from:
dataservice.member@gmail.com

What truely shocked me was the fact that the email made it through the spam filters at Gmail and my internet service provider to which I have my emails forwarded.
Its a phishing email, explained here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing

The fake email was as follows:
from
Gmail dataservice.member@gmail.com
accounts@google.com

Now, if you look at the emails "headers" (below) you'll see its not from Google.

The email is from a domain set up on GoDaddy:
http://www.khsksx.com/

I am quite sure that GoDaddy wouldn't allow this type of activity on their servers, however, the domain was created using a non-existant email account on Yahoo.
The registrant is listed as being from
Market Ave N Canton
   Oh, Ohio 43214
   United States
(This person's stolen credit card was used to pay GoDaddy for the hosting of the site used for the fake email.)
You can get that data here:
http://www.internic.net/whois.html
You can file a complaint here:
http://wdprs.internic.net/
The non existant email address used was:
judldjd@yahoo.com
http://pulse.yahoo.com/judldjd
(you get a blank page)

Registering a domain using false data is against the ICAAN rules for registering web sites.
This is explained here:

What are the penalties for this?
Basically none.
Thats how and why scammers get away with creating fake sites.
There is no real accountability.

Here are the headers from the phishing email:

Oh! what a tangled web we weave When first we practise to deceive! Sir Walter Scott NEVER use instant payment services like Western Union or MoneyGram to buy items on the internet
