Many registrars turn conveniently a blind eye to complaints they receive about spam out of sheer greed. Often spammers will have to pay a lot more just to get a "bullet proof" address and its good business for unethical registrars.

I remember back in the day Joker was one of the worst offenders. And I ended up moving all my domains to Godaddy because they had a stern policy against spammers, so I wanted to reward them with my business.

I think they're doing pretty well these days. Maybe being a good netizen does pay off in the end.
