I know damn well I can set up additional @domains linked to my gmail but who gives a fucking shit. Honestly if you reject such emails, and excuse me Doc as I like you; your a fucking idiot.
Aside from the obvious spam filters and shit, and yes you can set it to go to your gmail account, whoopie. Now what about that stupid ass sponsors who like to send out mailers that remind you of your user name and password. Guess I better never ever sell a damn domain name again and keep every site I ever make on a domain. Then if people really thinks the barrier of 8.00 or so to get a domain is some proper threshold to show that someone is a legit webmaster, get off the crack.
Someone show me one single damn reason that this works as a valid form of fraud prevention at all. On top of that please show how not just asking them for a domain would not accomplish the same thing. Oh yeah people can block whois data or even enter in fake info.
Lastly I will usually some domain I own when I sign up. Very damn often it will not be the domain I will be promoting from. This often happens because I find a new site or sponsor and like what I see. I sign up to remind myself. Then I will go through my domains I currently have to see if any would work best, or I may buy a new one.
If you really want to stop most fraud, keep in only legit webmasters, and be safe then perform the following.
1. Get them to send in their proper tax form with option for non US webmasters.
2. Get them to send in a government issued photo ID and or passport.
3. Have them provide some valid proof of current residence.
4. Stop using anonymous payout systems.
That should weed out most of it now wouldn't it? Also would ensure that no minors are promoting and being paid by your program.
